[1] I am the grandson of Mary Ellen Edwards (Donovan). My grandfather is Michael Gaslevich.
Thank you for your email. Attached are copies of hand drawn family trees as well as a birth certificate for Mary Ellen. We believe her to be the illegitimate daughter of Mary Ann Donovan, and that she adopted the Edwards name when Patrick and Mary Ann married. She may have been adopted by Patrick at some stage but we haven't been able to find any paperwork or information to confirm that theory.
I transcribed the information wrongly, Evelyn was born on the 2 August 1892 in Sandgate, Queensland and died 30 Mar 1976, place unknown at this time.
