spades, have you looked year-by-year through the marriages microfiche to see if she does remarry?

This ties in with the 1917 death of the son

TwiggyTree's 'C.F. THRUSTON' appears to be Charles Frederick THRUSTON who married at Dover in 1848 according to FreeBMD. There are two Mary's on the same page, Mary Ann HINDS and Mary NISBET.

TwiggyTree, where did you find that death notice for Mary, please? I'd like to cite it. Regarding looking for her remarriage, I believe I did do a search several years ago but found nothing. She's been on the back burner for so long I've forgotten.

I'm a bit wary of the M. THRUSTON of Dunedin being Mary Dorothea. It's a long way from Auckland.

This is fantastic progress team, thanks a million.

talking about prune, KHP, you're reading my mind far too well. I've just hauled out the birth certificate of Mary Dorothea as I was getting a bit twitchy about this THUSTON versus THRUSTON thing, and...on the certificate (now with the benefit of hindsight, I admit) it is spelt 'Thruston' Grrrrrr >:(

Why did I miss it? Because I purchased her marriage certifictae first, trusted the -ing typing ::) and didn't check.

Very sorry about this folks.
