Brazil: John Ellender
« on: Wednesday 31 March 10 10:46 BST (UK) »
Hi
Can anyone give any advice on looking for a marriage and death in Brazil.
I have found my great uncle John Ellender (Born in Kent 1894) on a couple of passenger lists going to Brazil in 1920 and 1936 on the second occasion he seems to be with a woman I guess must be his wife Maria Ellender.
I have been unable to find either a marriage or death for John in the UK so guess these may have taken place in Brazil but I have no idea where to begin to look!
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Regards Madmax

Hi
That certainly looks like the same person that is on the passenger list, my only problem is he may not be the John Ellender I thought he was as my great uncle had Henry as his middle name.
The search continues  !!
Many Thanks

Ah yes I see that the one on the 1936 passenger list with wife Maria is John Joseph Ellender.
