Title: Marriage lookup please
Post by: NooshieW on Thursday 30 October 08 13:47 GMT (UK)
Dear Rootschatters,
My great aunt Mary Ann West emigrated from Somerset England to New Zealand in 1860. She married a William Egginton who was living in Motueka Nelson. I think he was a widower. They later settled in Levin.
He was from Birmingham originally, I believe. Any info on their marriage would be appreciated. Any info on the Eggintons generally would be useful as well.
Thankyou,
KInd Regards
Nooshie

Thanks for the info. Our great Aunt was there for 3 years before she married!! She intrepidly went there alone.
How would we get more detail? Do you have access to the intention to marriage details?
Thanks again,
Kind Regards
Nooshie
