marriage Parry to Johnston
« on: Sunday 03 April 11 23:55 BST (UK) »
Hi still searching for correct John Parry .Born Llanidloes  Mid Wales 1875
Found marriage John Parry to Eliza Johnston  1927  but can't find any further  details such as birth place of JP ,tried to find details of deaths but only one comes up and that is a different one that I already know about  in Hillsborough
the grave inscription is in welsh ,they may not be buried there of course .
There are so many if's and buts along the way is there a site that lets you view the original marriage certificate on line?
 Regards from  Chris

Hi Chris
No you can't view a marriage record online,

Intention to Marries
http://archives.govt.nz/research/ordering-archives/our-research-and-copying-services/our-research-services/intentions-marry
are a way you can sometimes gather info about a pending marriage
or from church records

Have you identified your John Parry in any electoral rolls? Occupation?
No possible missdle names??
Otherwise with all the JOhn Parry's it may be a problem

When does he last get heard of in Wales?
BYe

Hi Chris, have you translated the epitaph of the one you do know about it, if so does it give any hints so to rule him in or out of your research?

I also have some persons in my family tree starting with John Mostyn PARRY b 1854 wales, this family was from Pukapuka and also descendents lived in Auckland, so i may be able to assist in ruling some of the "Parrys" out for you.

Hi Chris,

The probate for the Hillsborough cemetery John Parry states his entire estate was left to his wife Catherine Armstrong Parry if she predeceased him it was to go to the 2 children that Elizabeth Parry travelled to NZ with

PARRY E              1876 F 1915 London New Zealand Wellington   
PARRY Gwyneth  1908 F 1915 London New Zealand Wellington   
PARRY Idris         1907 M 1915 London New Zealand Wellington   

so John must have remarried.
Catherine Armstrong Parry died 17 Feb 1958 and  was cremated at Purewa on the 19 Feb 1958,her ashes were scattered.

Have you any definite information that John actually came to NZ

Cheers Janette

Hmm so it seems like the John I found is not the John in Hillsborough, what do others think?
