• Notes

  SURNAME WIRTH and OAKLEY According to the Victoria birth registrations, Eliza Evans and Nicolaus WIRTH had eleven children between 1859 and 1879. Eliza remarried in 1883, to Thomas OAKLEY, and indicated that Nicolaus had died in 1869 and there were two surviving children from the marriage. Her two eldest sons (Nicholas James and Thomas William aged 24 and 20 years) continued to use their father's surname. However the other seven living children (aged 16-5 years when she remarried) used the surname of their step-father, and when their marriage was registered they used the surname OAKLEY. No record of Nicolaus Wirth's death has been located yet, although he was sentenced for begging in 1898. It is possible that the father of some of the youngest children of Eliza Evans was Thomas Oakley. The surname OAKLEY has been used by genealogists, as evidenced by family trees published on ancestry.com. For example, the father of Alice Louisa OAKLEY (born 1873) is listed as Thomas OAKLEY in ten family trees. There are no family trees for Alice Louisa WIRTH (born 1873). I have used the surname WIRTH for all the children as this was the name registered at birth. I have also noted that the surname OAKLEY was used.
