Jane POORE - SA
« on: Monday 27 July 09 06:52 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find the marriage of Jane Poore some time before 1874 in South Australia. Her parents were Charles Poore(Railway Worker) and Elizabeth Poore(nee Henderson).She was born in 1852 in Wiltshire before arriving in Port Adelaide in 1853.
Any help much appreciated.
Don.

No marriage for Jane POORE on SA Marriage index.  There are however two marriages for the daughters of a Charles POORE - Mary Ann in 1862 and Harriett in 1873.

Why do you think the marriage was pre 1874?

I am wondering if Jane was actually Harriett Jane :-\

Thanks Cando,
I have a letter written by Jane's mother Elizabeth in 1874 in which she states that she has"two girls married,Jane and Harriet,but my oldest son is not married yet".
I know that Harriet married Joseph Cathro and Mary Ann married Richard Hounslow but Jane is proving to be quite a mystery.

Kind regards,
Don.

Hi Don,

Sorry, I have not been able to find a trace of Jane in SA after her arrival.

You may be aware Charles is buried at Chltenham with his wife. H 48e. He died on the 11 July 1889 aged 75 years as a result of an accident on the Port Railway Line. His wife Elizabeth died 25 June 1887 aged 67 years. (There is a stone)

There was an inquest on the 12 of July 1889 on the body of Charles POORE who was knocked down by a train near Cheltenham, on the Port Railway - Verdict Accidental Death.

Cheers Kris  :)

has an entry for an Jane Cornelia POORE, deceased 1876 , so, if this is the correct Jane,  maybe no marriage?.
