Greetings,
I was wondering if someone could do a look-up for me, please?
I have a Mary Ann Badier married to John Bellett, 2 December 1874.
The marriage cert say at the house of Mrs Badier widow, St Andrews St Dunedin.
Only other info is John a sailor and bachelor.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Jamjar

Hi Kate,
It could very well be the Bellet I'm looking for.
How do I get more information, or the certificate?
The other Bellets are a possible connection, if they were related to John.
Ummm, where is John?
Kindest regards,
Jamjar

Hi Jamjar and Kate
Do either of you have (approximate) age for Mary Ann Badier m John Bellet? I have good reason to believe she was the widow of Philippe Badier who died late 1860's in Jersey. Believe Mary Ann and (most of ) her kids emigrated to New Zealand after 1871 - some of the kids came on to Australia but it looks like Mary Ann was sidetracked by marriage in NZ!
Any further info either of you might have on Mary Ann I'd be eager to hear - and if she ties up with this Jersey family I have more info to share.

Hi Kim,
Yes, this is the same person. Mary - real name Marie - was my GGGrandmother. Her daughter Ida was my GGrandmother. All of her children born in Jersey - and taken to NZ - came to Australia. One she left in Jersey.
I have an excellent photo of the daughter Marie, given to me by a direct descendant of that line. I don't have any of Ida. If you let me know your connection we can discuss other things I have you may be interested in.
I only need two bits of information to complete my side. I need the death cert for Marie - Mary - and I need to know when, and on which ship, her children came to Australia.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Bingo, Jamjar! We are on the same family.
So as not to bore other listers, I will send further details to your message box and continue this exchange privately.
Thanks for your speedy response. See you again in "messages."
Regards

I sent a message to your mailbox, but got a message saying there was an error.
I have actually met Ann and we exchanged all we both had. The photo I have of Marie came from her.
I don't think you have anything else to find, but goodluck with your search.
Jamjar.
