I cannot find another Charlotte on the death indexes and ages on shipping indexes are rarely correct.  Only 3 years difference with the years of birth of Charlotte on the passenger record and the death reg.  I guess the certificate would reveal all :)

Do you have this certificate?  Are the groom's parents George and Charlotte FAULKNER?

I have been having a browse & can see these, the marriage was posted above by Sue.

This marriage in NZ: Agnes  Waller + John  Taw  1887/2385 matches with this death in NZ:  Taw  Agnes  43yrs 1895/2742

So it doesn't match with Agnes Waller (mother) remarriage or death or Agnes Patullo Waller (daughter) she married Kealey in 1899 & died in 1950 so I don't know who it is? But it is an oddity.


Hi Kala

Hmm ... and there's also this New Zealand birth.   ???

1881 - TAW - Charles James

Parents:    Agnes and John



Could this Agnes TAW who dies in 1895, be the former wife of Edmund Robert WALLER snr. ? 

Yes, I know her "age at death" (43 - bc 1852) doesn't stack up with the Agnes b.c. 1845 ... but ... ?    :D

*  So, who is the Agnes having a child with John TAW in 1881 ?   ::)  ;D

[This TAW surname is somewhat rare in NZ records, just the deaths of Agnes, John and Elizabeth, two births 1881 + 1907 (father, John) ... and two marriages for John.   Can't immediately see anything further for Charles James TAW, (nor John Philip TAW b. 1907 to Elizabeth & John.) ]

I guess there's the question too about how John Taw WALLER (b. VIC 1877), got his name ?

There is this probate ,wondering if he dropped the Waller name

TAW John
Auckland
Master Mariner     
1916


 :)

This probate file relates to John TAW - d. 1916 aged 64 years (born circa 1852).

Inquest -
WALLER John Thomas
1903  Ref#1162
 
Place of death [Kew] and subsequent inquest could indicate death at Kew Asylum.  Perhaps this is the reason, if it is your John T WALLER, that the age is incorrect.

Mmm ... don't know if there are any coincidences to be had, here ?

From Sue's earlier post >

NZ Maritime Index
WALLER - John Taw - Engineer - 1905
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"Countess of Ranfurly" of Sydney
From Port of Vila (New Hebrides) to Sydney 9 February 1909
Crew

TAW - C.   -- Engineer --  age 26 -- Native place, Auckland
[Source:  Mariners in Australian Waters ]

C. TAW is very possibly the child "Charles James TAW" born 1881 in NZ ?

Sorry, I don't have access to NZ school records which might hopefully confirm a "Mr TAW" as guardian of the WALLER children.   And maybe it is just coincidence that the WALLER boy and a C. TAW, have similar occupations ?
