WALLACE-HALL marriage
« on: Wednesday 04 January 12 00:43 GMT (UK) »
Hello,  I'm trying to find details of the marriage (date, place, children) of a John Wallace to my great aunt Mary Hall, of Bugle Ranges, South Australia, who was born in 1844.  I believe it was J W Wallace, quoted in The Advertiser in 1939 as a racing clubs' starter and descendant of John and Mary Hall who arrived from the UK in the Ariadne in 1839.  Any info, or advice on where to look further, greatly appreciated.  Thanks,  Adelaide

From Biographical Index of SA - not always 100% accurate but a good resource.  Data needs to be validated.

HALL John
Parents Robert born c1788 Rox SCT
Died  23 Feb 1872 b
Buried Mt Barker SA
Arrived 1839 ARIADNE
Occupation Farmer  Lived at Mt Barker, Maryfield
Religion Presbyterian

Married 2 Apr 1863 Maryfield SA Mrs Eliza MILLER nee SINCLAIR  Parent James born c1825

Unable to identify your John WALLACE in BISA however this one is a possibility

WALLACE John born c1843 SCT

John and Mary Hall

Bride's Father: Thomas HALL

The marriage reg has Mary's father as Thomas.

Something not right here as you state that J W is a descendant of John and Mary HALL who arrived on the ARIADNE.  Perhaps I haven't read it correctly and I frequently misinterpret info  :-[ 

Off to prepare lunch :)

Adelaide I'm having problems with my SA discs at the moment so if no-one takes this up I will have to get back to this later.

I note that nowhere is John WALLACE referred to John W WALLACE.

Oh, Cando, terribly sorry.      The reference in The Advertiser is W J Wallace, not J W, my mistake, a seniors typing moment!
