Hi Neil

Welcome :)

There is a marrige for an Elizabeth Jane Boyce in 1901 to Charles Fitt This marrige from the marrige CD, I cannot see it on NZ BMD.
Mary Matilda(?) Boyce married Allan McLean Franklin Browne in 1907
There is a Catherine Boyce married William John Gow in 1907

I can't be sure these are yours do these marriges chime in with their birth dates.

Lots of marriges for Henry Boyce do you know his middle name.

Thank you Leandra for your prompt reply.
I do have information on William and Henry They are my great,great,grandfather and great,great,great grand father)
Elizabeth Jane was born about 1854 and Catherine 6 years later. Mary M was listed as a infant when they arrived in NZ in 1863.
Thank you for the 9nformation already provided as it will give me some thing to work on. Neil

Hi Neil,

Maybe if Elizabeth was born in 1854 perhaps the 1901 marrige may not be her, unless she married later in life.
There are a couple of other possibilities on NZBMD for earlier marriges.

Mmm ... Eliza Jane OGILVY - d. 1952 aged 87 - born circa 1865.     Sadly, not the right one.   :(

Hmm  ... and there are two deaths for the name "Catherine GOW" 1915 aged 87 (bc 1828) and 1954 - 76 - (bc 1878) so the 1907 marriage is very probably the wrong Catherine BOYCE.   :(
