Trying to trace Ada Livinia Dixon *completed*

[johnbarr]

Ada Livinia Langford (sometimes shown as Lavinia) b 12 Oct 1876 Nelson married Stanley Moxham Dixon 16 Apr 1900 in Wellington.

El rolls show her living with her husband at Wanganui until 1949.
He died 24 May 1950 and is buried in Wanganui.

I cannot find any trace of her after this, so possibly re-married.
Any suggestions very welcome.

Hello John,

There is a 1953 probate at Archway for "DIXON, Ada Lavinia"

May be helpful.

EDIT: Although BDM NZ has an age at death of 74 which gives a birth year of 1879, so maybe not.

Regards
Beg

Can't understand how I missed it before - but shows how more eyes than mine always helps.

Hello Glen,

Thank you for your reply. I had that information from Gary, the very helpful sexton at Aramoho, and had neglected to add it to this thread.
