I found the following references for both Phillip Henry and Jessie RICHARDSON:
1914 Electoral Roll for Wellington City Suburbs p.93: #4567 Richardson, Jessie May (sic) Buckingham Street, Maranui, married. #4569 Richardson, Phillip Henry, Buckingham Street, Maranui, draper.
1919 Electoral Roll for Wellington City Suburbs p. 148: #7262 Richardson, Jessie May (sic) Buckingham Street, Maranui, married. #7266 Richardson, Phillip Henry, Buckingham Street, Maranui, draper.
Buckingham Street is in the suburb now known as Lyall Bay and is on the hill overlooking the airport to the east. I checked the rest of the Wellington Rolls, but couldn’t find either Philip or Jessie living there.
I checked NZ deaths 1920-30 inclusive and happened to find two deaths of a Jessie Richardson, probably too early, but none for a Phillip. If you can tell me how old Jessie or Phillip were, or when they might have died I’ll broaden the search for their deaths.
Finally, it appears that the NZ Society of Genealogists http://www.genealogy.org.nz/index.html may have a copy of the marriage certificate of Jessie DUCK and Phillip RICHARDSON. I suggest you email them at nzsg-contact@genealogy.org.nz I presume there will be a charge.
Happy hunting,
Tor

Hi Judy,
This afternoon while in the library I happened to see the name DUCK on the cover of a genealogy magazine, 'The Greenwood Tree. The Somerset & Doreset Family History Society May 2005 Vol 30 No 2'.
The article within discusses the family of Thomas DUCK age 30, wife Susan 35, and their children Elizabeth 9, Samuel 8, Thomas 5, Pricilla 2, and Susan, a few months old, arriving in Melbourne on the 'SS Great Britain' on 6 October 1870 ex Liverpool after a voyage of 59 days. it includes a photo of the aprents Thomas and Susan. The contributer was an Ivan Duck.
Any chance they could be connected to your mob?

I have a relation in NZ whose mother was from Whitby. Her name was Marian Maud Duck and she was about 11 when her parents emigrated to NZ. Could she be a connection of yours?
