Royal Artillary in New Zealand??
« on: Saturday 19 February 05 11:10 GMT (UK) »
I have just discovered that my husband's maternal grandparents married overseas in 1891.  Their place of marriage was Wellington (country unknown but could be NZ).  I know that the bride's father was in the RA at the time of her birth.

Does anyone know how I could find out in advance of the certificate arriving?  I would also like to try and discover what they may have been doing in 1891 (in NZ?) besides getting married!

In hope

Since last post I have discovered that there is a Wellington in India which makes more sense.
