marriage and birth
« on: Monday 26 December 11 20:22 GMT (UK) »
Hi I am looking for the marriage of my great great great grandfather William Rees (this was changed to Reese when he came to New Zealand) to a Mary Fitzgerald around 1830.  She was from Ireland so it is possible that he got married over there.  Also for the birth of their son John who was born around 1832.

Regards

Hi
 Have you found the family on a ship that arrived in New Zealand? To confirm that they did marry in the Uk or Ireland?
 Do you have any census info for them in New zealand that would give the place of birth? also you say a son was born was that in uk or NZ? have you found any info on the son at a later date in NZ?
