Looking for anyone that can give me information on starting my family tree. Grandparents were Dora Newitt Born 1912 Married Claude Wroe Born 1907. Dora's parents were Herbert Newitt and Annie Hoffman. Herbert's parents were Charles Newitt and Elizabeth Bastard.

Claude's parents were Alexander Wroe and Emma O Danziger. Alexander's parents were Nathaniel Wroe and Mary A Gosley.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi Toni,

Queensland BDM indexes are online https://www.bdm.qld.gov.au/IndexSearch/queryEntry.m?type=bir...

You can purchase certificates from the Qld government website.

You already seem to have a reasonable amount of info so I don't know what you mean by 'starting' your family tree? I suggest that you limit each post to a person or couple and ask specific questions about each one.

The family of Annie HOFFMAN looks to be complicated, and the pooled efforts of a forum might be of assistance to you with this family.

Ancestry has trees for the other families you have named.
