Alice Eliza FORSTER

  General Notes:

Was at my Christening at Enniscrone, Thornton in 1949

  Birth Notes:

There's no birth notice in The Argus - I paged through the whole year of 1876! In case the registration year in The Australian Birth Index was wrong and other trees in Ancestry.com were right about birthdate 28 Aug 1878, I paged through Aug and Sept 1878 as well. Looks as though the normally punctillious Forsters failed to put in a birth notice??
