Murray/Wall
« on: Monday 24 August 20 11:01 BST (UK) »
Dear All

Looking for information on a lady called Anne Kirstenen Murray she was the daughter of Thomas William Murray and Mabel Emily Andersen.  She was born on the 14 November 1945 in Palmerston North, New Zealand and died on the 6 July 1999 in Waikato, New Zealand.  I think she married a man called John Wall, I do not know when they got married and anything about John.  Why did Anne die so young??   Was Anne cremated or buried and where? 

Regards
Oletta

Hi Oletta

Unless you know that her husband is also deceased, then it is wise to remove his name from this thread.   [See rules of RootsChat re: naming of living (or potentially living) persons.]

I can't see a burial or cremation record for the lady you seek amongst Hamilton records, but will look further for you.

Incidentally, her second name appears to be spelled as "Kirstene" (not "Kirstenen ).

Hi

In case you are interested, there is a Probate record available via Archives New Zealand.
[Not viewable online - but can be purchased or ordered for viewing at Auckland branch of Archives NZ].

Hi Oletta

Some other options for you ...

*    As you have her date and place of death, you could try the "Ask a Librarian" service at the National Library of New Zealand, for a copy of any death notice that may have been published.
[Same may possibly hint at "cause of death" (accidental / illness) ].

*    You could order a copy of her death record at NZBDM (the "printout" version is the recommended purchase as it gives the most available information.)

Hi Oletta

Yet to find a burial or cremation record for Anne Kirstene WALL.

In case it is of interest though, here is the link to cremation record for Mother, Mabel Emily MURRAY - d. 2019 aged 96.

https://www.pncc.govt.nz/services/cemetery-and-cremation-search/warrant/?id=63937

At same link you can also view cremation record for Thomas William MURRAY - d. 1994 (just change the christian names in the search bar.)

I do not know when they got married ....   [name of husband removed ]


Can only give you a timeframe in which she married (- marriage index for that era, not available online).

Anne Kirstene MURRAY was on Palmerston North Electoral Roll for 1969 (roll closed on 30th July).

Under her married name of WALL, she next appeared on the Hamilton West (Waikato) Roll of 1972.

Morning.

I plan upon returning to the Auckland branch of Archives NZ within the month, and could photograph this file for you.  At this time the public access is restricted due to Auckland Region being under a COVID-19 level 3 lockdown, however that is due to be eased on September 1st, and with luck, the whole country level 2 restriction, will ease further again shortly thereafter.

This is a free service I offer, paying it forward, as others help me at Archives I can not attend. If successful all I will need is a PMed private contact method.
