My Grandmother Elizabeth Moffatt Russell b Dec 1868 Kilsyth, Scotland emigrated to New Zealand. She accompanied Mr and Mrs Garciner and their daughter Sarah. I am wondering if Elizabeth was staying with the Gardiner family in Wellington. They arrived in Wellington November 1901. Elizabeth worked in Hobson Street, Wellington for Monteith and also Warrens.
Elizabeth m my grandfather Charles Robert Matthews April 1904 at Wellington.
Would anyone be able to find me Elizabeth in an Electoral Roll from Nov 1901. She died Oct 1937. At that stage she was living at 27 Nelson Street, Petone.
Thank you

Hi Butterlily,
I can only find Elizabeth in the 1911 Electoral Roll where she was living at "The Laboratory Wallaceville" The Electorate was Hutt.
Charles occupation at the time was "attendant"
