Thanks for that info Ian!!

I came across one of the marriage witnesses, Charles Eldridge, the other day, I think he married one of the Coulldrey girsl.  I'll have to go back and have another look.

Thanks heaps Ian.

Can you do me another favour and have a look for a marriage for George Couldrey?  He is supposed to have married a Maria but can't find it on Free bmd.
George Couldrey and Mrs Maria Couldrey arrived in New Zealand in 1863 and then a few kids.

Cheers,
Loz

Sorry no George in Abingdon that I can find.

Thanks Ian. Perhaps another one in the family that didn't actually marry??

Hi Loz

Hmmm ... I would say that George COULDREY did marry Maria  ... AND, I'm pretty sure that that is his marriage - "JUNE - 1863 - St. Neots".

However, as you will have seen on the FREE BMD entry for JUNE 1863, there are 3 grooms and only the one bride !

By scooting around the 1881 Census, I've found that the bride "Emma PEACOCK" appears to have married James JEFFS.
That then leaves a George NIGHTINGALE and George COULDREY without brides ?   George NIGHTINGALE can also be found in 1881 (with a wife Sarah and a son - born St. Neots 1864).   Couldn't see a suitably aged George COULDREY though in the 1881 census, so the question is, is this (1863) George, the one who has travelled to NZ ?    [And just why two "brides" are missing from that June 1863 listing, is anyone's guess ? ]

But anyway, now have an idea of who George COULDREY's bride might have been  ... and ... yes, I think there is a further HYDE connection !
