Mary Catherine SMITH

[belindy]

I wasnt sure what country to put this post in!

I have a Mary Catherine SMITH who(on her marriage certificate) stated that her parents were John SMITH (soldier) and Eliza O’Neill.
Marriage occurred 1890 in Auckland, New Zealand.
She also states that she was born in Perth, Australia (c1863) but on her death certificate it says England(although I know that death certificates are the least reliable of the certificates).
On Mary Catherine’s son’s military records it says she was born in New Zealand.

I have searched but Mary Catherine or Catherine Mary doesn’t appear.

I haven’t found any further mention of her parents.

Does anyone have any tips advice?

Many thanks

Too much of a coincidence???

1871 Channel Islands Census
John SMITH 58 Head Mar, Army Pensioner, born 1813 India
Eliza Smith 34 Wife born Carlow, Ireland
Mary A  8 (1863) Daug Carlow, Ireland
Mary E 4 (1867) Daug born Perth, Australia********
Kate NEELL 70, Mother in Law born Carlow

Might explain England connection?

Looking at the image the E may be a fancy C
