I would say Douglas Graham COOPER,1990, as found by Dazey is correct husband,
www.ryersonindex.org has death and funeral entries with same residential details as Valmai Jean

So it looks as though we have two Valmai Jeans?  One who married & died in NZ - and another, Jean Valmai Lamplough who married & died in Australia?

Yes, looks like it:) It appears I jumped the gun on this, thinking Jean Valmai would be an uncommon name, just looking at nsw bdm seems it was more common than I thought. The Jean Valmai who married in New Zeland is mine.

Hi, I’m (Australian) Jean Valmai Cooper’s granddaughter. Does anyone know any information about her? She married Douglas Cooper. So excited when I found this post, but realise it’s the wrong Jean Valmai (not Nz). Any information would be amazing. Thanks

Hi Jamjar,

Both Douglas and Jean have passed and we have found out that Jean was actually adopted. We are hoping to find out who her parents were but unfortunately keep hitting a brick wall. We do not know if she has siblings. Her adoptive parents were involved in the Seventh Day Adventist. Unfortunately we only know very little about her.

Thanks
