I received the birth certificate for Margaret Florence Brokenborough or Brockenborough as its spelt both ways on the certificate.

Date and Place of Birth - Eleventh March 1879, Warrena Steet Walgett.
Name - Margaret Florence
Sex - Girl
Fathers Details - George Brokenborough, Carrier, age 52, born Wiltshire England.
Marriage - January 1873, Maitland NSW. (One male living)
Mothers Details - Sarah McCosker, age 40, born Pattersoon ?? NSW

Ive tried looking up details on this certificate but nothing seems to add up  ???

Thanks Mandy.

Thanks Everyone for your help and hints.  :)

Sorry Billyblue I only just seen you question asking about George Davis's occupation. On the marriage certificate it states her fathers profession as being a Carrier.

I just thought I would add the witnesses on the marriage certificate are G.Upton and I. Melly.

Thanks
Mandy

HI,

I did see the gazette article when looking through Trove. I have come across a few George Brokenborough's but none seem to fit.
I have been searching for possible deaths for Sarah and George as her marriage certificate states they were deceased when she was married in 1906 I was hoping to find burial records or anything that could lead to a hint.
The only information I have on Sarah and George is what is on Margarets marriage and death record so anything could be possible with this family.

Thanks
Mandy

Thanks for helping,
This lady is driving me insane I brought the record just because it seemed a coincidence and I didn't know where else to look not sure if it will turn up anything. I know nothing of this side of my family and am not sure if she had any siblings and I don't have any info on her parents as I only have their names off the marriage certificate and death record. I have no dates for them.  :-\

Thanks
Mandy

Hi Everyone,
I am not sure if any one here can helped me but I am stumped trying to find the birth of my 2nd  Great Grandmother and information on her parents.
I have her Marriage Certificate and it states
My 2nd Great Grandfather
William Albert Martin married Margaret Florence Davis. Her birthplace being listed as being in Walgett and her parents being George Davis (dec'd) and Sarah Ward (dec'd) when she was married on 17 Apr 1906
I also have her death in 12 Aug 1963 at Balmain her parents listed the same as above and I have her burial at Nowra General Cemetery. But I cannot find her birth. I have searched NSW BDM and the only Margaret Florence born to a George and Sarah Is a "Margaret Florence Brockenborough" District Walgett year 1879. Surely this is to much of a coincidence not to be my Margaret. I have ordered the record but in the meantime I am stumped trying to find information on her prior to her marriage using the names Davis or Brockenborough I was wondering if anyone had any ideas were I should look next. Any ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. :)
Thanks
Mandy
