Surnames: Hollins
I am looking for information about my great aunt Margaret Ada Hollns, born 1880 in Staffordshire, England. She was known as Ada or Adie and emigrated to Australia in 1899, arriving in Brisbane in February 1900. She sent relatives in England a photograph of herself taken at the Bain studios in Toowoomba. After that there is no information about her. Any help appreciated.

Hiya,
QLD BDM is online but I cannot see a marriage or death for her. Although deaths only go to 1964 so she may have died after that date.
https://www.bdm.qld.gov.au/IndexSearch/BirIndexQry.m

Ancestry has Electoral Rolls to 1954. I did see a Margaret HOLLINS but not enough info to know if it is her or not.

Maybe have a look and also check http://www.archives.qld.gov.au/research/indexes.asp

Thanks for the information. It could be that she moved to another state. I'm not sure if they all have records online.

Hi,
WA BDM
http://www.bdm.dotag.wa.gov.au/_apps/pioneersindex/default.a...
NSW BDM
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/searchHistoricalReco...

SA has no BDM online and VIC charges a small fee for results
http://online.justice.vic.gov.au/CA2574F700805DE7/page/Histo...=~

Although some have CD's for VIC and SA which you could ask on those boards...althought you would be asked to post her date of birth and parents names.

Ancestry Electoral Rolls should give you some clues.
