RICHARDS - Alfred - marriage look up VIC

[clairhaines]

Hi All

I am looking for the marriage of Alfred Richards to  Eizabeth Page in Melbourne around 1872. I am wanting the certificate to see if I can find their parents.

Alfred RICHARDS was born around 1852 in Sydney. Have not confirmed this
Eizabterh PAGE was born aroound 1847 in London. This is all the information I have about her.

They are the great great grandparents of my husband.

Can anyone help

I have found that Elizabeth PAGE was actually a widow when she married Alfred RICHARDS. She was Elizabeth WHITE.

Bought the death cert. of Elizabeth Page RICHARDS. yes, this was her death in 1905. Aged approx 56 years. Two husbands and nine children.

Shows previous marriage to Thomas White in England.

Only 2 years  between this marriage and her marriage to Afred RICHARDS.

Seems she must have been married, had a child,  widowed, imigrated to Aust and remarried all in the space of a couple of years. Brave lady.

Just trying to find her passage to Australia. There is an assisted passage in Feb 1870. No mention of infant, but he definately came along.

What was the infants name?

Caroline''s first husband was Thomas WHITE. The infant was Henry WHITE.

Now I am not sure if Thomas died in England or Australia. Could make sense if they travelled together to Aust, but he died, so she remarried bery quickly. Not sure
