South Australia - Marriage of Charles CLACY & Lillian Earle

[shazza181]

Hi,

Looking for the marriage of Charles CLACY & Lillian EARLE in South Australia. Charles CLACY came from Reading, Berkshire, England in 1850. I have searched unsuccessfully for their marriage in Victoria, so it either looks like they married in South Australia before they came to Victoria, or else they didn't marry at all.  Any help much appreciated.

Sharon.

Reference to a Mrs Charles CLACY in VIC but not Lillian.

Wonder if your Charles CLACY left the above lady for Lillian?
Another researcher thinks Charles and Lillian married in 1861.

No marriage on the SA cd.

There is a file for Charles CLACY - Letters of Admin
http://www.prov.vic.gov.au/indexes/index_search.asp?searchid=54

This could be him on the 1841 census -

I am unable to find a marriage for Charles CLACY to Lillian EARLE/PRESTON.  Unfortunately the marriage noted by MERLIN on free bmd does not list the others on the page.
