MERIONEY/Grace Mary BAKER

[RSMACL]

I have commenced a new topic on behalf of a friend who is a beginner to family research.  An male ancestor was named .......MERIONEY (she thinks this is correct spelling) who married a Grace Mary BAKER, and they lived in Croydon,Victoria.  Husband died in 1980-90's when they were living in Sorrento, Vic.  In 2000, Mary was in Kingston, Hobart, Tasmania.  Any information of this couple would be appreciated.

It  appears  the couple were married in Croydon England in  the third quarter of 1930

He was born in 1908 at Gravesend Kent

Also  a possibility  she was born in Kent in 1907


The couple left South Hampton  in 1959 for Melbourne

Thanks to all posters.  I had thought the spelling my friend gave could have been incorrect.  I would appreciate any further details, such as children etc.?  Much appreciated.  Ruth

If  they  had children they  would have been born in England, I would assume.

Probably   the  best way  to see if there was any family would be from a death or funeral notice.  One of our very kind rootchatters goes to the NLA in Canberra,  perhaps she might be able to do a lookup for you


How  was your  friend related to  the couple?
