1. Thomas Michael Bruce

Mabel Grace Sparkes

  • Born: 1891, Molong, NSW Australia
  • Marriage (1): Thomas Michael Bruce in 1909

  Research Notes:

source: & John Stanton who is her grandson & who notes:
Mabel Sparkes is my great grandmother. On her marriage certificate, her father is listed as Alexander Joseph Sparkes McKoy. Where THAT came from is a complete mystery, as it seems now to have passed somehow to another part of the family entirely. He isn't known throughout most of his life as that, though - the McKoy part just appears. Electoral rolls show him without it.
So Mabel Sparkes is sometimes known as Mabel McKoy and sometimes not. She used Sparkes and McKoy freely and interchangeably as her maiden name, probably derived from her father's mysterious use of it.
Mabel Sparkes married Thomas Michael Bruce in 1909. They had seven children, only three of whom lived beyond childhood:
