I'm now wondering if their names are the anglicised forms of Johan Schmidt and Maria Sjostedt?

Thank you for your thoughts Ginny  :)  I'll keep all this in mind in my continuing search for clues.

Hi Omega For some reason I missed notification of your message sorry.  John's residence at time of marriage is listed as Norton St, Tenby, Wales. Thank you for any help  :)

Thank you for looking into that Ian. Everything helps. 

ftDNA results in (approx. 970 matches) but no SUISTED to date. Am also searching for possible associated family names other than the ubiquitous SMITH. Have uploaded to gedmatch.

Probate was interesting but no new leads for John and Mary per se

The father named as Henry THOMAS on the marriage cert. No mother mentioned. We think the mother may be Elizabeth Parcell.

Hi,

I will throw this one in for elimination or not.

Looks like the NZSG hold in their Certificate Collection, a certificate for an Alice Cumberbeach and a John Smith for 23 June 1922, Dunedin, which ties in with a death for George Edward Smith.

Cheers

Just re-looked back over this thread just in case I missed something...

Death of George?? That's important to me! Have been trying to trace him for a long time. I will see if I can source this info from NZSG as you mentioned.

Hi Ginny much appreciated that you took the time to come in an post here with this info. Yes I had looked intensively at the two children of Charles who were named Mary but dates simply didn't match my Mary.  You say " Then a swedish cousin 'Maria Sophia Obiljana Sjostedt (b 1824-?) " do you believe this might worth looking further into?  I am also awaiting a DNA kit and hoping I may find some leads when it's processed.  I come back to Mary SUISTED quite a bit but still stuck! Thanks again.
