Andrew Graham Henderson
« on: Tuesday 10 October 17 15:04 BST (UK) »
Andrew Graham Henderson was born on 21 August 1882 at Auckland, New Zealand. His parents were William Nisbet Henderson, a Draper and Commission Agent, and Elizabeth Black Henderson (nee Graham). The family returned to Scotland in 1891. For completeness, I would like to find the names of his siblings, whose initials were R. S., W. B. and J. (I think, Jane or Jean), and where they lived in Scotland after their return.

I see a record of the marriage of William Nisbet Henderson and Eliza Graham in 1878 in New Zealand. It looks as if his first wife died?

Thank you. That really clears it up. Death of wife and sequestration must have led to emigration to New Zealand. I saw the 1891 census and the initials led me to ask the question.
