Hi Listers,
Hopefully you maybe able to help me find info on Elizabeth and her parents before she immigrated to New Zealand abt 1871.
She was born abt 1843 in England?, married Henry Roberts in 1873 in New Zealand and she died 1 Oct 1881 in Christchurch New Zealand age 34 yrs and buried in Linwood Cemetery, Christchurch NZ with her husband.
On her cemetery data it states her place of birth - Cornwall UK, 16 years in NZ.
Any thing of her and her family would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Regards.

Elizabeth Jane Crowle married Henry Roberts in 1873, Reg#6946
Suggestion, you may like to put a post on the New Zealand board requesting that someone please check for the intention to marry (ITM). I have received the most wonderful assistance from the team on the NZ board with my research.

Hi Janet 666 & Rambler, + the future listers that may reply.
wow how fast was that, thank you very much and will follow up on the links and suggestions. i've found the ship passenger list and found that Elizabeth mirgrated on her own with no siblings, mmm oh ok the penny has just dropped [excuse the punt] maybe she met her husband - Henry Roberts (from Cornwall, his mother Mary Roberts -nee ?; d. 24.11.1883 St Dennis, Cornwall England) decided to move to NZ. I'm only presuming thats may or could of happened.
I will get on to ITM as i have a contact in Christchurch that she could look that up for me.
I'm one happy, delighted, excited person with what you two have done for me, sooo quick, and a huge thank-you.
Yes like wise, a very merry xmas and a wonderful new year, to all.
Regards

Thank you Trish, i've looked up on the OPC what a wonderful site, i'm taking all advise on all that's been given to me. You've all been so kind.
Thank you.
Regards to all.

You wouldn't know what year that Samuel and Mary married and what Mary's maiden name was. I've look on all the suggested sites but haven't been able to come up anything other from a Mary Wills - 22 Nov 1851 in St Austell. Could this be them.
Many thanks,
Regards.
-
Yes that would seem to be the most likely marriage but it has Samuels Father as John not Peter on Cornwall OPC!
To be sure you need to buy Elizabeths Birth Cert which will have her mothers maiden name on it.
Do you have her NZ Death Cert?
It should name both of her Parents if they were known to the informant.
Do you have Elizabeth and Henrys marriage Cert?
The NZ ITM is another way of confirming her Fathers name and occp.
