    LETTERS IN HIS BAG
    When Mrs Doreen Stedman, of Surat, found letters from other women in her husband's kit--bag, she spoke to him about them, but his only response was to tell her that she could do what she liked about it, and if she wanted a divorce, he would give her all the evidence she required.
    Such was the story told by Mrs. Stedman, in Brisbane Supreme Court on Mondayy, when she petitioned for divorce from Sydney Eric Stedman on the grounds of his desertion.
    A MARRIAGE certificate copy tendered by Mrs. Stedman showed that she was a Miss Butler when she married Stedman a road contractor in 1940. The certificate showed that Stedman's father was Sydney Stedman, Professor of Music.
    Her husband, she said had come from New South Wales and after being in Queensland for a short while after the marriage, he had gone to Singleton to live. His people had obtained a job for him in a munition works in Newcastle. She followed him to N.S.W. but he told her to go back and she returned to Surat, said Mrs. Stedman.
    Stedman joined the Air force in 1942, and visited her on leave the following year, she said. She found letters in his kitbag, and he told her she could do what she liked about it, as stated above. He left her, and she had not seen him since, she said.
    Mr. Justice Philip: It looks as though your husband wouldn't care what happened to you?
    Witness: I'm sure he wouldn't
    Mrs. Stedman said she had misconducted herself with a man named Ward, and since then had been living with Ward as his wife.
    His Honor made an order for divorce.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
