I expect the family you mean will be Samuel AH TUE and Louisa STROLGER. They had several children in Burke's Flat, Wehla and Watchem, Victoria.
This is their marriage.
Please note.
AH TUE is recorded as AH TIN in marriage records and then recorded as AH TUE and AHTUE in the birth records of their children. Louisa is also recorded as STROLE.
Groom: Samuel AH TIN.
Birth place: Given as Canton.
Bride: Louisa STROLGER.
Birth place: Given as Kingower.
Year married: 1879.
Place: Victoria.
Ref: Registry of Marriages, Victoria. Reg. #2778.
Louisa's birth in case you don't have it.
Name: Louisa STROLGER.
Birth year: 1861.
Place: Kingower, Victoria.
Father: Jacob STROLGER.
Mother: Caroline MASON.
Ref: Registry of Births, Victoria. Reg. #15316.
Thank you. Can you tell me anything about Jacob Strolger and Caroline Mason. I know Jacob was born 1839 England, died 1875 Victoria and married 1856. Lived Bendigo and worked as miner. Caroline born 1835 died in Victoria I think. they had 3 children. Can tell me where she died, did she married again. How they related to Louisa marrying chinaman. What was Jacob like
Louisa had a daughter called Jane. I know she had 3 children Leslie, Arthur and Jane. I know a bit about Arthur and Jane but I can't find out anything about leslie. He was born 1905 Bendigo. I also hear that Jane had a daughter back in1900 which her mother brought up. Jane married William Robert Owen and john McMahon.
