SERVAES, FRANCIS CHARLES. Adm. (age 20) at Jesus, Oct. 1, 1881. Did not reside. Adm. at King's, Oct. 10, 1881; from New College, Oxford, whence he had matric., Oct. 16, 1880, aged 19. [Eldest] s. of Julius of Holly Lee, Sefton Park, Liverpool. B. at Walton-on-the Hill, Lancs. School Uppingham, Matric, Michs. 1881; B.A. 1884; M.B., B. Chir and M.A. 1888. At Heidelberg, Berlin, St.Georges Hospital, London and the.... Hospital...USA, 1887
AT 10 A.M. on February 3rd I was summoned by a midwife to Mrs. J., aged 38. She was a strongly-built woman, and told me that this was her thirteenth pregnancy, and that she had had four miscarriages. The last three children had been born at the eighth month, but had been reared. No previous multiple pregnancies, but her mother had had three twin pregnancies. I found that she had been delivered at 8 A.M. of a male feetus of about six months. She considered herself to be about 6- months gone.
There had been no difficulty; but the midwife at 10 A.M. thought the placenta was adherent, and sent for me. On external inspection I found that there was another feetus in utero. Examining per vaginam, there was a fleshy mass adherent to the wall of the uterus about half way between the os internum and the fundus, and almost blocking the uterus up. This had no doubt been mistaken by the midwife for the placenta, but the cord could be traced up beyond the mass towards the fundus. On the far side of the fleshy mass a second bag of membranes could be distinctly felt. I put the patient under chloroform, and with my hand removed the fleshy mass, which was a matter of considerable time and patience, as it was intimately adherent to the wall of the uterus. I found that at the area of insertion of the fleshy mole the wall of the uterus was only about a quarter of an inch thick.
There being only moderate haemorrhage, and the uterus contracting upon the second foetus, I ruptured the membranes, and having seized a knee easily delivered a female child, about the same age as the male child. After waiting half an hour, and being unable to express the placenta, I examined again, and found it to be adherent to the fundus. I managed to detach it fairly easily with my hand, and to my great relief the operation was followed by immediate and powerful contraction of the uterus. The haemorrhage was almost infinitesimal. The placental mass consisted of two separate placenta joined at one edge, with the " battledore " insertion of the cords at the free edges. The children lived for twelve hours; the mother has made an uninterruptedly good recovery, with normal temperature and natural discharge. The woman is very healthy, has never suffered from any wasting disease, and has had no accident to account for the premature birth.

Servaes, Francis Charles, M.B., B.C.
I am aware of the fact that there is a hint on Ancestry that seems to indicate a marriage of Selina Rosina Jones to Francis Charles, the brother of Alfred James Servaes. This marriage did not take place, as can be verified on Free BMD, but there is a story behind it.
Selina was engaged to be married to Francis Charles Servaes and the indication with Ancestry makes it clear that a date was planned in St.Paul, Upper Holloway. When Alfred James returned home from the Boer War in South Africa she married him, which caused a degree of bad feelings in the family. It made that Francis Charles left the country for South Africa, where he married for a second time and he later moved to Australia. He never returned.
Francis was listed as a widower with the outlook of this wedding, but Bertha was still alive and would be till 1944.

RAILWAY EXTENSION WANTED.
FROM BOURKE TO HUNGERFORD.
FIRST SECTION OF GRAND TRUNK
RAILWAY.
Last week a meeting of pastoralists and
others was held at Thargomindah (Q.), for
the purpose of furthering the railway exten-
sion from Bourke to Hungerford, thence to
Tobermorey, via Thargomindah. Mr. R.
Speedy occupied the chair. He pointed out
that the line from Bourke to Hungerford
would be the first section of the Grand Trunk
line, and if the Queensland Government could
be urged to extend the line from Hungerford
to Tobermorey, it would mean the linking up
of the South-west railway; also, that the
Transcontinental line would be made eventu-
ally from Sydney to Port Darwin. Hungerford
was distant about 100 miles from Thargo-
mindah, whereas Cunnamulla was 140 miles.
Mr. H. B. Paterson (Boorara) said such a
railway as they were advocating should have
been constructed long ago, and that with the
exception of the sinking of indispensable ar-
tesian bores the treatment meted out to this
district was not commensurate with its splen-
did potentialities. If the railway were con-
structed from Bourke to Hungerford, and
thence on to Tobermorey, they would have
a better chance of opening up the country.
He had arranged with Mr. Sidney Kidman
that they should interview Mr. Griffith,
Minister for Works, but unfortunately they
had been unable to secure an interview. He
had, however, seen Mr. Waddell, M.L.A., late
Treasurer of New South Wales, and that
gentleman had said that if the residents in
the district could urge the Queensland Go-
vernment to extend the line from Hungerford
to Tobermorey, the first sod of the Bourke-
Hungerford line would be turned in 12 or 18
months' time. The line would be the first
section of the Grand Trunk railway from
Sydney to Port Darwin. There was at pre-
sent under construction from Kalgoorlie to
Port Augusta a Transcontinental line, which
would run right across South Australia. The
second section of the line from Sydney to
Port Darwin would be that of Hungerford to
Tobermorey. The Queensland Government
should not complain about the above line
drawing trade away. Mr. Griffith, Minister
for Works, had stated that Premier Denham
had discussed the matter with him relative
to the extension of the North Coast line to
the Tweed River (which had a 4ft 8½in gauge)
and the North-western line up to the Queens-
land border, and had promised to build a line
to join the Bourke-Hungerford line.
A motion was carried urging the Govern-
ments of New South Wales and Queensland
to proceed without delay upon the permanent
survey from Bourke to Tobermorey.
It was also resolved,—"That, inasmuch as
the immediate commencement of work on the
first section would afford rapid transit to
thousands of stock, which would otherwise
perish, this meeting is of opinion that the
New South Wales Government should be
urged to commence the first section without
awaiting the completion of the said survey."
The mover, Dr. Servaes, said Mr. Wragge
had predicted another drought, and if that
came to pass there would be enormous losses
of stock that could be saved if they had the
railway. It behoved everyone, especially the
pastoralists, to make every endeavour to have
the line extended.
It was resolved that the following reasons
be urged upon the Queensland Government:—
To Tobermorey:—
(a) The line, if constructed in a straight line from
Hungerford to Tobermorey, would not only escape
the flood-waters of the Bulloo, but, owing to the
nature of the country and the absence of wide
steams to be bridged, would present a minimum
of engineering difficulties.
(b) The line would open up for closer settlement
much good sheep country south and south-west of
Thargomindah, and would result in the conversion
into sheep runs of many cattle leases.
(c) In the course of a few years the Government
would be able to resume portions of many of the
runs in this district without paying any compensa-
tion.
(d) In the event of the line being extended from
Bourke to Hungerford, but not continued to Tober-
morey, it is a reasonable assumption that Sydney
would become the outlet for the major portion
of the south-western trade.
(e) In times of drought the pastoralists of these
districts, who annually pay the State thousands of
pounds in rents and taxes, would be freed from
the heavy losses which have hitherto befallen them
during the dry weather.
(f) That the proposed route for the grand trunk
line (via Bourke, Hungerford, and Tobermorey)
would be the most advantageous to both New South
Wales and Queensland, whether considered as a
business proposition or in the purely national
sense of a highway for the rapid mobilisation of
troops.
(g) The extension of the line to Tobermorey would
mean the completion of the first two sections of
the grand trunk line, which must eventually be
built for defence purposes.

There is no divorce documentation known, so it seems that Francis left her for some reason.

His death certificate says he married at the age of 38, so the marriage should have been in 1899 or 1900, but due to the situation with Alfred Servaes and Selina Jones >1903 seems more logical
