Did he marry in Queensland on 22 Nov 1947 to (name not given as she may be still living)? Various mentions on trove of Mr and Mrs KING of Bundaberg, and his in - laws the SHUTTLEWORTHs.

Modified to add:
Possibly not, they are in Bundaberg at the end of March 1947, engagement announced 17 May 1947. He is the 3rd son of Mr and Mrs W KING of Bundaberg.

Do you feel you have been got at Spades ?  Sorry about that.

On NZ Historic births I can not find any living NZ KING births in 1928.  Just a still birth to Adeline Alice & John KING. sb. 37/3/1928.   1928/13770

As Allied service men on leave, would visit their clubs, with their "mates" I would not place too great an importance upon it being, the NZ CLUB.

Also as a half brother has been mentioned, he may also have been known by another name.

Alan.

Isn't that because New Zealand (Historic) births only show on the NZ BDM online index as at "today's date - 1923"    ???

 Sorry everyone one I should have added more information
He was Jack Harris Edward KING born 1928 in Petone, father Charles KING Mother Ella Lydia. Married 1925. She had a son and daughter from a previous marriage.
I will attach the photo on other side of post card, it may not be an Air Force uniform but the family thought that was who he enlisted with.

Hi  ... looks like Ella Lydia (nee DEW) was firstly married (1915) to Samuel Leonard KING (died at Woodville, Nov. 1918.)     Was Charles the brother (b. 1893) of Ella's first husband, Samuel L. KING  ?  (Ella and Charles appear together in 1919 on Petone (Wellington) e/roll sharing an address with Samuel L. King's parents.

I see there are 2 Jack KING s in Bundaberg on electoral rolls, the one I mentioned earlier, and another who appears at a different address with an Elizabeth. Will look for more details later. :)

Mmm ... something like 50 trees on ancestry.com site for Charles KING (b. 1893) and wife Ella Lydia (nee DEW).     Some have generous numbers of "sources" (and I skimmed over a few)... but only one of those trees mentions "Jack Harris KING"  - no dates or other info for him.  ???

In case you don't already have it, here's link to father Charles' Probate record > his Will names his children :
