Was Power's husband the William Francis O'Rourke who died 16 February 1942 at Bellevue Hill ? Doug butler (talk) 04:51, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
The phrase "Survived by" is a direct quote from the Australian Dictionary of Biography, and is entirely consistent with the fact that we do not have "Billy's" dates of birth or death. Any other way of conveying the information would make for turgid prose. Doug butler (talk) 06:41, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Note: This statement was rendered obsolete by the discovery of his army records in NAA. Doug butler (talk) 04:13, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Why is the extensive note included at all? This article is not a biography of Billy and this level of detail is off-topic here. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:32, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
There is a lot more I could have added, but refrained for the reason you outlined, however he is arguably the most important person in Power's life, with the possible exception of Melba. Far more than her husband, who is inconsequential apart from the fact of being nominated as NoK in his attestation papers. Doug butler (talk) 04:13, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
And where his life intersects with hers, it makes sense to mention that. But stuff like the address of his employer is over the top. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:21, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Is there an alternative source that disagrees with ADB? Nikkimaria (talk) 14:43, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
I don't understand the question. Doug butler (talk) 04:13, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
You assert based on the photo that the son may have been born before 1920. The ADB asserts he was born in 1920. Do you have another source that agrees with your belief? Nikkimaria (talk) 04:21, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Irrelevant now we have solid information. Doug butler (talk) 10:17, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
