Hi
can't help with the ITM but just always interested in early Thames families
Have you submitted a pioneer family form to The Treasury (Coromandel Heritage Trust)?
http://www.thetreasury.org.nz/Resources.htm half way down page

If not we would love to receive one for the pioneer folder collection
Goodluck with your lookup request
Bye

Hi Colin,

Hi Riley

Index cards show:
1873 CHAPPLE, Thomas
BDM, 20, 18, p195, 448
Registered at Shortland.

(will save you a look-up so you can do a pre-order and have the Register ready and waiting for you)

Bren.

Hi Bren,

Now how did you get that reference? Where you in Wellington and didn't tell me? We could have met for a coffee 

Unfortunately you can't pre-order ITM's or other material (as far as I know, anyway). Even with a reference I'll have to order it and then wait for the item to come up.

And ITM's aren't held over-night unlike other items such as probates which can be held out for 5 days.

Regards, riley, and thanks for the reference.

Hi Riley

Can’t afford trips down to Wellington these days......….
I’m still working on the Indexing project and have recently done that part of the cards, so was able to do a search on my spreadsheet.

Unfortunately you can't Pre-order IT M's or other material (as far as I know, anyway). Even with a reference I'll have to order it and then wait for the item to come up.
And IT M's aren't held over-night unlike other items such as probates which can be held out for 5 days.

If you use the email pre-order service (available at all 4 offices), and give them at least 2 working days notice, you can order anything that you would normally order in person.

Blow me down, I need to read more widely, don't I!

Thanks Bren, I'll try it.

Hi Kiwicol,

Here it is:

Intention to Marry Notice. Archives NZ Ref: BDM 20/18 1873 Shortland p.195/448
Notice dated 9 December: Thomas CHAPPLE, bachelor, a miner aged 20 years living at Waiotahi, length of residence 6 years, intends to marry Sarah PARKER, spinster, a servant aged 21 years living at Waiotahi, length of residence 1 year, at the dwelling house occupied by Rev. LUSH, Mary Street, Shortland. Name and Relation of Person giving Consent in the case of a Minor: Jane French, the mother. Minister: Rev. LUSH.

Note that the name of the mother was difficult to interpret.

Regards, riley

Interesting the ref

at the dwelling house occupied by Rev. LUSH, Mary Street, Shortland.

I suppose that means where the marriage will take plaace, was hoping it could mean she was a servant for Rev Rush, then it would make good reading to read the Thames Journals by rev Lush

I had a quick look but it just talks about the servant and no names.
Of course the full journals held in auckland may give more info

Sorry for the sidetrack
