Comment

The birth of Elizabeth Mary Maria Ottaway (sic) was registered at Hastings in Q2 1863.

Is this her husband, in a report of the Advertiser, Adelaide, South Australia, on 1 January 1913:

"The programme at the King's Theatre is of infinite variety and good quality. The special feature is the spectacular and sensational act of De Villiers, a magician who introduces illusions that are positively staggering."
