Biography
William Oldershaw was born around 1827, the son of Elizabeth Oldershaw (nee Dixon) and William Oldershaw .[1]
He was married to Ann Anderson.[2] Their son William James Norman Oldershaw (1856–?) was born in Emerald Hill, Victoria, Australia.[3]
Ann died in 1872.[2]
William remarried on 19 April 1883 at Zetland Villa, Flemington, Victoria, to Jane Elizabeth Colclough .[4] [5]
William died on Christmas day, 25 December, 1907 at his home on Kent Street in Flemington.[6]
Research notes
Guessed England as place of birth because his wedding notice to Jane Colclough states 'formerly of Castle Donington, near Derby, England'.
Various articles about his will in 1930 give his death date as 24 December 1907.[7] [8]
