Tying up loose ends

[Rosalie21]

I'm looking for help please. My Great Aunt Rose Ann Baxter married Arthur Selby Dalgliesh
in Canada 1912? had a son in Canada then moved to New Zealand. I’ve traced all the family
even the living relatives however none of them know much.  They went to Canada from the
UK on their way to New Zealand I don't know why they went independently or to Canada
maybe because he was at sea

My question is when did they go to New Zealand from Canada, did she go by herself with
her son or did she travel with her husband. Her husband was a captain and so they
could have gone to New Zealand independently.
Thanks in advance for your help Rosalie

Hello there.

This appears to be the marriage ...

https://www.familysearch.org/search/recordDetails/show?uri=https://api.familysearch.org/records/pal:/MM9.1.r/MN55-4G1/p1

You can search for them in the 1911 census for free at this link ...

I don't believe there were any records kept for passengers outbound from Canada. Have you checked for New Zealand inbound passenger lists?

Hi polarbear

I have the marriage thanks, however I've not tried the New Zealand inbound. I don't have access to world wide info only UK via ancestry and genes. Thanks for the links Rosalie

Hi again.

You might check at your local library to see if they subscribe to Ancestry Library Edition. I believe this would give you access to most world records.

They must have arrived in New Zealand by 1919, as they both appear on the Electoral Rolls for that year.

For some reason, although they lived on the same street (and assumably in the same house) they have different towns listed (obviously a mistake, but I don't know which is the correct one!)

Dunedin South Roll (Otego)

Dalgliesh, Arthur Selby, Nile street, St. Clair, mariner
Dalgliesh, Rosie, Nile street, St. Kilda, married

After looking at the 1928, I think the St. Kilda is the correct one:

1928 Dunedin South
Dalgliesh, Arthur Selby, Nile street, S.K. SS Tahiti, master mariner
Dalgliesh, Rosie, Nile street, St. Kilda, married


There are several more Rolls showing address changes/occupation changes for them up to and including Arthur's retirement, if you are interested.

Hi barb

This is great Sorting out which is the son should not be a problem as he died 29th december 1949 - Dunedin. New Zealand.

When I've finished sorting out the tree I'll be passing it on to their living relatives.

Thanks for your help it takes me a step nearer to finishing this leg of my family tree
