Thomas Henry DUCK and Jessie URQUHART - N.Z.*COMPLETED*

[stricko]

Thomas and Jessie were married in 1873 Wellington NZ, not sure where they died. Thomas in 1908 and Jessie 1905. I know she was born in Inverness, Scotland 1854, but don't know where Thomas was born.  His father's name was John and his mother Eliza Miles.
In 2005 I got a message from Riley on your forum and he said there was a Jessie DUCK on 1893 Electoral Roll (Women) in WAIRARAPA electorate. Can anyone put that list up for me please

Thank you Janette, I found my husband's grandparent's marriage notice in the paper and the death of his great-grandfather. When I find out more details of the families, I'll look some more.
Thanks again, we are so excited.

LEANDRA,
Thank you for the info on Thomas and Jessie's death details and the headstone. They ARE my husband's G.Grandparents. It was such a beaut surprise. I would appreciate it if you can find their children's birth details. I only have their daughter Jessie who married Phillip Richardson (my husband's g.parents).
Thanks again
Judy
