A tree on Ancestry says that he died in 2000, but no source or note attached to that event.

They do have an Electoral Roll attached

Peter Francis Bingham
Gender: Male
Electoral Year: 1977
Subdistrict: Dandenong North
State: Victoria
District: Chelsea
Country: Australia

Living at 8 Worral St with a William Bingham.
[ He's also there in 1980, the last ER shown on Ancestry]

You could contact the Ask A Librarian service to see if they can trace him forward on ER. Although you won't be able to find a DC due to the Australian privacy laws, you might be able to find a burial or cremation record in the last known area.

Edit your title to include Australia - that would attract the attentiion of experts in that country

This is a good site to check from up-to-date deaths in Australia

Unfortunately Peter Francis Bingham does no appear to be on there


http://www.ryersonindex.org/

The Ryerson Index is a free index to death notices appearing in Australian newspapers. The date range covered extends from the Sydney Gazette of 1803 up to newspapers published within the last week or so. The Index also includes many funeral notices, and some probate notices and obituaries.

Because the Index was originally created by the Sydney Dead Persons Society, its strength lies in notices from NSW papers - including in excess of two million notices from the Sydney Morning Herald alone. However, the representation from papers from other states continues to grow, with additional papers being regularly added, so that the Index can now truly be considered an Australian index.

Replied to PM giving the name of the tree owner and probable relationship to Winifred Lily Barnes.

If loujay isn't in contact with her, offer made to pass on a message. L
Loujay - if you take up the offer, send the message & your email address to me by PM rather than posting on an open board.
