Temuka Wedding in 1929
« on: Monday 23 January 12 05:38 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,

I'm trying to find some more information on the marriage of Charles GRANT and Irene O'KEEFE in Temuka in 1929, I am assuming they were married in the Catholic Church there.

Ideally I would find the birth date and place for Charles GRANT.  Does anyone know if the church records are accessible or if there is a newspaper archive or something of that nature?

Many thanks,
OchAye :)

This looks like it could be his burial,with Irene,if so it gives a birth date 1900c
