Hi getstarted

Welcome to rootschat  :)

It looks as though Arthur could have had an older brother Thomas

and possibly a younger sister Jane Martha

Yes, this is the Arthur Bailey that was born in Bedford and died in the Falkland Islands.  He was married to Christina Healy, Maria Lousia Lovelidge and Elizabeth Horrocks.  I am trying to find any family he had in Bedford prior to going overseas.

Arthur Joseph Bailey was born in the Falkland Islands in 1874.  Madelaine Jane was born in 1849 but her Mother was Maria Louise Lovelidge.  Arthur Bailey (Bedford) married Maria Louise on Feb 10th, 1948.  It could be the same family but I am not sure.  ??? ???

Thank you for the information on the appointment to surveyor and the marriage to Maria Louise.  That fits with my tree.

Arthur had a son & daughter in New Zealand and there are now many Baileys there.  I am corresponding with a few of them.
