John Douglas KOHN (1918-1976)
John Douglas KOHN is listed in electoral rolls; -1943 (Newtown, Tumbarumba) -1949 (Corryong & Wangaratta) -1954 (Wangaratta) -1958 (Euroa) -1963 (Euroa) -1968 (Euroa) -1972 (Euroa) He appears to have married Shirley Veronica GILBERT and had 9? children. I don't know their marriage date or place. From what I've been told, he died in a tractor accident or similar at Ruffy, Victoria on 16 Jul 1976. Shirley pre-deceased him and they are buried at Yarrawonga. I am hoping to hear from anyone with information that would confirm who his parents are, his birth date/place, siblings and anything else of use for my family history.

Re: John Douglas KOHN (1918-1976)
Hi kb, Neither Ancestry Indexes nor NSW BDM allow a NSW birth search to 1918 so you won't find his birth online if indeed he was born abt 1918 in NSW.
