Hello
I have attached photo's of James Stenhouse and Margaret Murray. Also a copy of Margaret Stenhouse (nee Murray) birth certificate showing her birth as 1823 to William Murray and Janet Douall.
Their marriage document of 1858 shows James as 22 years old and Margaret as 28 years. This is obviously not correct as Margaret would actually have been 34/35 years old. Obviously she was quite a bit older than James. This seems to be reflected in her death certificate which I have just received which shows her dying in Marrackville, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia in 1921 aged 95. James died in 1927 aged 87 so this confirms the age difference.
Their marriage document shows William as being deceased. Does anyone know when he died? Or where he was born or married. I have been unable to find William and Janet's marriage at all.
Margaret and James are my 3 x Great Great Grandparents.
