Marriage of Lewis Bradford GILES and Grace
« on: Saturday 31 March 18 10:13 BST (UK) »
I am searching for the marriage of Lewis Bradford GILES and Grace (maiden name unknown.
Lewis born Islington England about 1868-1871.
He died in NZ in 1924

I cannot find a marriage in NZ for them and wondering if they married prior to coming to NZ.

Thanks for any leads

He must have emigrated between 1911 and 1913, possibly for the second time

He is shown listed in Conyers Lodge Wellington New Zealand 1913

1910 he appears to live in Wanstead Essex

No marriage I can find in England.

There is a family tree on Ancestry that shows he was a widower when he married Ethel Grace Self  in N.Newport News Virginia, if of course this is your man

Many thanks for your time and replies, I will need to pass this onto other family to see if they know anything of this.
