The mark describes the person, not the link. Of the 12 relatives drawn here, 0 have a document of their own in this archive — but that is not the same as a document tying them to this person. This archive holds no separate proof for most parent–child links; where it does, the note above this chart says so in words.

Where this sits in the family

Not on the direct line. They are published because they belong to one of the eight surnames this archive follows.

The register spells this surname more than one way, and the search folds the forms together — so Xubrinich and Žubrinić, Joannis and Ivan, find each other.

SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. G. L. D'ARCY. 'When Mr. George Lindsay 'D'Arcy, who is a clerk in the correspondence branch of the Home Secretary's Department, was alight- ing from a tram near the Treasury Build- ing on Saturday morning, either as it was ' stopping or had stopped, he was seen to fall heavily backwards, striking his head on the wood paving. He was picked up in an I unconscious condition, and conveyed,into Mr. Corinack's chemist shop. Dr. Hopkins and the Ambulance were summoned, and it was ascertained that Mr. D'Arcy had sustained a severe scalp wound, which was jat once dressed under the doctor's direcections. He was then conveyed to his home in Sussex - street, South Brisbane, and left in the care of Dr. Webb. A message was shortly afterwards received at the office that he had died. He was well advanced in years, being 71 years of age, and leaves a widow and grown-up family. Mr. D'Arcy was a well liked and esteemed old member of the civil service. He entered the Government em- ploy as far back as 1st April, 1863, as Clerk of the Executive Council, but a year later was placed in the correspondence branch of the Home Secretary's Depart- ment, where he has remained ever since. He was given some letters on Friday to draft, and these were found on Saturday done in pencil," with the quotation, " Dust thou art, to dust returnest," written at the , bottom of the paper. In view of the sad occurrence next morning, this incident is singular. Saturday was Mrs. D'Arcy''s birthday, and possibly the certain amount of mild excitement induced by the circum- stance may have been the primary cause of the collapse, as the deceased gentleman made himself fairly busy on Friday select- ing those presents by which he and the members of his family thought fit to cele- brate the birthday of the partner of his declining years. He was buried, in the South Brisbane Cemetery yesterday after- noon.
