Alice THOMPSON married George THOMAS

[Gillian Baker]

Hello,
Have come across this;
A VERY pleasing ceremony was performed at Mr. G. Tory's Hotel, yesterday afternoon, when Miss Alice Thomas, second daughter of Mr. Thomas, of Manganui New Zealand, and Mr. Alfred W. Bullen second son of Mr. G. Bullen, of Kiama were united in holy wedlock by the Rev. J. Dinning. The bride was attended by Miss Bullen, sister of the bridegroom, and Mr O. Major acted as best man.The bride was attired in a becoming cornflour cashmere dress, trimmed with shot silk, while the bridesmaid looked beautiful in a dress of blue cashmere. After partaking of a hearty wedding breakfast the happy couple left for Sydney in the 7 p.m. train on their honeymoon tour. The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947) Friday 22 July 1892 p 2

Hope this helps.

Hi there,  I am also interested in finding out information about the Thomas family.  Charles was my great grand father.  I would be interested in seeing photos etc if that was possible.  Also where is Martha Maria buried?  Thanks

Also G O Thomas is buried at the Mangonui public cementery.  Died 3.11.1997 aged 86yrs

Hi There,

I have just seen this message. I think Charles is my 2nd great grand father. So somewhere we may be related. I will see if I can find out where Martha Maria  is buried.

Do you have a date as to when she died?

Looking forward to your reply

Hello,

I am a Canadian descendant of George and John's brother younger brother Joseph who emigrated to Canada in 1874.

I understand from my brother that he met I think a daughter of George III of New Zealand - if I have it correct they would be third cousins.

Joseph's son told his daughter - my mother a few details about these NZ uncles and I would love to fill out the information I have - I am very interested in how families of those times kept in touch - or lost touch with siblings and adult children.

Hi June,
I am a great-great grandson of George Thomas (1839-1923) and I have been researching the family for a book I am writing about the family.
I would like to correspond further with you regarding Georges brother Joesph and I have just found out more information about their brother John who fled Mangonui in the 1860's to Nelson and then Canada after killing a local Maori chief.
Earlier this year I also organised the first ever NZ Thomas family reunion and if you are interested (I know Canada is a long way away but we had cuzzies from London,Abu Dabi etc) I would like to invite you & any family members to or next family reunion, Labour weekend (October 2022).
My email address is ^(*)

I look forward to your reply!.

Regards
Loren Thomas
