Judith, the marriage is a parish record from the CoE, St James, Melbourne.
It will be scant on information :-\

Hi Wivenhoe,

Hi Merlin,
Many thanks for all the info you have sent. The Hannah being on the Irish Famine Memorial was quite interesting as I was looking at the list yesterday for other members of my family and saw the name but didn't think anything of it!
Thank you so much and it's very appreciated :)
