Birth and marriage lookup please Auckland Area
« on: Monday 27 March 06 21:58 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Looking for the marriage of Robert William Wilson (b. 1872/73) from Shorne,Kent, England and ....?
He arrived in New Zealand probably between 1891 and 1909. Found him in the 1891 census but not in the 1901 census (in England).
His daughter was born 1910, so he probably got married between 1900 and 1909.
He lived in Wiri Papatoetoe Auckland so I'm hoping that he got married in this area as well.
I don't know where his daughter (Ethel Mabel Wilson) was born (according to my gr-gr-grandfathers churchbook she was born ?? 06 1910 ), but again I'm hoping in the same area.

Can anyone look this up please? Would also like to know what the name was of Ethel's mum. And were there any other children?

Any help grately appreciated.

Hi,

thanks for replying.
The marriage for Ethel Mabel looks promissing. She would have been 29 then. Will have to order marriage-cert.

As for Robert William Wilson: since I found him in the 1891 census in England the 1890 marriage can't be him.
However the 1903 marriage could very well be him. Will have to order that cert. as well.

Thanks again.

Hi there,

I checked the archives probate search for Robert William Wilson,  there was several, but none in Auckland. There are 211. for just Robert Wilson.

This is a good link for checking probates and some other archives.

http://archway.archives.govt.nz/SimpleSearchResults.do

I was also thinking that alot of people Ive found in the marriages DIDNT use their second names or their second names arent on the index. He may not have used his middle name either, So I hope the marriages I found will be the correct ones.

I also checked Manukau Memorial Gardens & Purewa Cem & Crem, no mention of a Robert William Wilson there.

Do you think he may have spent most of his life in Papatoetoe ? if so it may be worth writing or phoning Mangere Lawn Cemwetery, to see if they have him ? If you dont live in NZ let me know and Ill call them for you, it wont cost me anything for a local call.
