Maude Stuart born Fermoy 1876

[wscroley]

The parents of my great aunt Maude (or Mabel) were William Stuart and Jane Scott. I cannot find mention of her on the censuses for Ireland for 1901 or 1911 or a marriage in Ireland.  Maude's brother, Charles, emigrated to NZ in 1903.  There is an entry for a Maude Stuart arriving in Wellington in 1898 and a marriage to Arthur Hill in 1902 on the NZ BMD website, no obvious children and early death.  Perhaps Charles followed his sister?  Any information gratefully received.  Thanks

[Janette]

The M Stuart who arrived in Wellington appears to have been older than you lass and the manifest just has "M" not Maude

Hello...

As I read it, the following death notice is for Maude's nephew...

Perhaps, as the death is fairly recent (The Press, 11 Jun 2008), you can start a newspaper look-up thread. If there are any next-of-kin mentioned maybe they can help you.

Maude's brother, Charles, emigrated to NZ in 1903.

For the record...

STUART, Charles - WW1 12/3486

Born Ireland
Son of William STUART and Jane SCOTT
Father of Douglas Haig (Keith) STUART b.30 Jan 1928

Many thanks for your help everyone.  All the Stuart girls were very economical with the truth about their ages so short of sending off for some certificates I may not be able to pin down which entries are correct.  Didn't know that the youngest son of Charles was known as keith so that is a help too.
Thanks again

Mmm... elimination I think, KHP, for this Maude HILL. 

She is buried with Harold Ernest HILL who died 24 February 1960 - aged 77 [bc 1883].
They appear on e/rolls from 1928 at Dell Ave. Auckland.
[Can't see a New Zealand marriage for them though ? ]

Edited to add:   Both on Parnell roll from 1914.
