Elizabeth Blackburn Page's date of death was 22 March.  There is a picture of Joseph and Elizabeth attached to a tree at Ancestry.  BTW Joseph Francis has his names turned round.

In case you are wondering Wendy, there is no further step ahead with knowing Elizabeth's birth place or parents mentioned.

Thanks KHP and Minniehaha.
I have contacted the Waimate Museum and Archives to see if they are able to assist and await their response.
I don't give up easily!
I will see if I can locate Elizabeth's marriage to ? Blackburne.

Can you list all the information on the GAIN - CHAMPION marriage document, 1880.

If you have reason to think she is from Ireland, the name might be GAHAN?

Thanks Ray - I will bear this info in mind.
Wivenhoe - I don't have a copy of the Gain/Champion m/c.  The only details I have are from the NZ DIA marriage index

Have done some searching. It seems that  Roseanna and Richard Champion did not have any children so we cannot get some clues from the names of their children.  Is that your understanding OP? If Roseanna was Irish the Irish do have a naming pattern and names of children can give clues.  Looked at some Irish websites and there are Gain/Gaine/Gane and Gavin names. I think you may need to get the marriage certificate. As long as the marriage took place after 17 ? January when the 1880 act came into force you should find quite a lot of information about parents and place of birth etc.

Thanks Shanreagh for your posting.
I had asked the Waimate Museum and Archive if they had any info that might assist.  The only info they were able to provide was on Richard from their Early Settlers Index.  Their index does however give Rose Anna's surname as "Pain".  I have not yet had an opportunity to check this out.
