I think she is likely Sarah Abigail / Abigail Sarah and variations, and mother is Mary Abigail / Abigail Mary.

New Zealand Herald 23 Nov 1928
death Abigail LEAREY...........son in laws residence 5 Rutland Rd Devonport  74 years (b. ~ 1854)

Auckland Star 2 Nay 1930
..injury to Mr W WALTERS  5 Rutland St  Devonport

BDM NZ death
1928 / 7066 JOYCE Abigail       74 years.

Looks like Abigail was not married to Mr LEAREY so no marriage to find in NSW or NZ.

...at reply #31
Rupert John JOYCE d. Nov 14 1918   38 years
  ........wife of Cecilia, father of Jack
..........mother and step-father M A and G LEAREY
...........brother H G LEAREY

Where is birth of brother H G LEAREY?

If this is his death NZ -
1961 / 24808   LEAREY Henry George   67 years

he is born ~ 1894?

WW1 New Zealand  Nominal Roll
LEAREY Henry George, clerk, NOK mother Mrs M LEAREY  116 Hobson St Auckland

Have received the death printout for James McGaw and this confirms three children from the first marriage. Parents are John and Ann McGaw
Also have his wedding printout which states he was widowed on the 23 of May, 1892 in Sydney.
Marriage witnessed by Olive May Walters and Rupert John Joyce.

There’s several possibles  at the online NSW BDM index : 
 :) of a Sarah MCCUE  registered East Maitland (regional).  #7837  Drills down to a December 1892 date
 :) and a death of an Ada R McKAY, Newtown district (Sydney Metro) #9795  … its an October 1892 date
 :) and Bridget McVAY, Parramatta #4317.  Its an August 1892 date

There may be others, but not all deaths were registered.  Yes, it was compulsory, but sometimes, if there had been an inquest into a sudden death, then the coroner’s office and the funeral director and the clergyman were all expecting the other office to register the deaths, and if I then add that the police were responsible for notifying the coroner, and most BDM registrations were made verbally to local deputy registrars…..  well the Reg General’s Office eventually fixed the slack admin with tighter regulations from around 1914. 

Cheers,  JM
