Queensland marriage William PRICE 1867
« on: Wednesday 17 January 18 18:56 GMT (UK) »
I have amongst my paperwork from a previous contact a marriage for a William Price.
I was never able to confirm where they found this information and i haven't been able to find any reference to it anywhere.
Can anyone help with this. I am in England.
William PRICE and Anna/Annie/Hannah (The contact has Anna but i know she went by the various names) 11 Dec 1867 in Gayndah Queensland
Thank you Melia

Hi Melia

There are several Qld births to a Wm PRICE and Anna/Anne/Annie/Hannah RICHARDS around this period.

Sarah b. 1869 (reg C1853)   
William b. 1869   (reg R145) - possibly re-registered after they married?
George b. 1871   (reg C2072)
William Henry b. 1872 (reg C2133)   
Margaret b. 1874 (reg C2709)   

There is also a death for a William PRICE son of William & Hannah (nee RICHARDS) in 1868 (reg C714).

Possible death for Wm snr in 1875 aged 35, born England (reg C1361). He was from Cheshire.
See trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/148506837

But no trace of a marriage reg...searching for a William on that exact marriage date brings up a different couple entirely.

An Annie RICHARD married a John PLUMB in Qld on 11 Dec 1867...reg C188

Hi
Yes i have all those births etc, and it comes with a big mystery as it seems Annie married John Plumb, who may not have been John or John changed his name to William Price for some reason as the children change their names to Plumb in death (On death they are indexed under their married name but mothers name is given as Plumb formerly Richards)
A big mystery
