The moment a young man ceases to dream or to bemoan his lack of opportunities and resolutely looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the corner-stone of a solid and honorable success.

You know that she married in 1911 to Jacob Abrahams. That's enough information to apply to the Queensland Registrar-General for the marriage certificate. That document should list Maltina's age (from which her year of birth can be reasonably approximated), birthplace and names of her parents. See here for how to do this: http://www.justice.qld.gov.au/765.htm With that information, you will get a lot further in your research. While we all like to take advantage of free resources, occasionally spending the dollars to get a certificate is well-worth the information it contains.

I cannot find anything back before Maltina Myers. I do not know the name of either of her parents. I can only guess that her father's name was Myers. I only know Maltina from my father's birth details which does not even name his father. Thank you for your effort. I am am still trying to find some link to Maltina back further.
