Elizabeth D. Allardice....Scotland to New Zealand

[ajjbc]

I am looking for information on Elizabeth D. Allardice,she was born 1876 in Scotland.
She was the daughter of Elizabeth & John Allardice.
She had a brother,John Russell born in 1879 in Scotland.
This family of 4 arrived c 1883 in Otago,New Zealand as another brother Russell Taylor Allardice was born in 1884 in Dunedin,Otago,New Zealand.
Did she marry or ?
  Thanks from Canada

I can only see two marriages for an Elizabeth Allardice on NZ BMD's. One is for an Elizabeth Baxter Allardice in 1912 and the other for an Ada Elizabeth Allardice in 1897.  I think Ada was born in Tamaki(?) in 1876.
Elizabeth Baxter Allardice married Charles Shae Mclean.

This may rule out the Elizabeth Baxter Allardice as this gives her birth date c 1886.
Charles Shae McLean
born about 1879 and died age 55 on 30 Oct 1934
Buried at Wakapuaka cemetery Nelson
Spouse - Elizabeth Baxter McLean died age 59 on 18 November 1945

  I believe Elizabeth's middle name is Dickson/Dixson.
I might also add that John Allardice (her father) died in Aug 1893 at Otaga and there is possibility that his Widow moved on to Victoria,Australia. If that is the case I might have to post a notice there.
Reason for this thinking is that Elizabeth's(1876) 3 brothers died in Victoria,Australia.

Janette,
         Yes,William Callander born Apr 1886 is the youngest brother to Elizabeth born 1876.

Thank you very much Janette...I was not aware the probates were on Family Search.
John was just 50 years old and his wife was only 40 years old and left with  4 wee children, having only being in a new country for 10 years...must have been tough.
  Like so many others!
   Cheers and thanks  Ann
