I can have a look for the marriage (which will provide the year of registration only) for you later in the week, if you wish?

Wow - I go to sleep for the night, and a biography appears!!

I must go to sleep more often...

Seriously thanks to all the NZ people who have provided such excellent information; until I saw this info, I thought my gt-aunt had gone to NZ a spinster, and stayed that way.

I am accessing the Times Archive via my local library;  I had already sought (and found) Muriel in the British Newspaper Archive (BNA) and forgot that The Times is a notable omission from it.

Do I gather that Kiwi residents can get (much) more recent BMD data that a mere Brit?

Yes please - I think the marriage details are about the only thing missing from the story that is building here.

Next time I am near Purewa cemetery I will take a wander and see if there is a headstone for Muriel
