[bee29]

If someone could look up the following couple for me I would be very grateful -

Robert McKnight and Eliza Pinnell Butcher - married on December 30, 1871 in Christchurch.

I am particularly interested in the "length of residence in registration district" for Robert McKnight.

Thank you, Bee
