Look Up Request Melbourne
« on: Friday 22 June 12 21:38 BST (UK) »
COMPLETED - Thanky you all
Joseph Myers married Eliza Ekhardt in Melbourne on 04 Jul 1857, according to their daughters birth certificate. I have not been able to find this marriage on Ancestry.co or The Victorian Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriage. Are all Victoria BMD registers actually on line or are some missing. Could anyone look up this date in the Melbourne registers for me please? (Eckhardt/Ekhart/... etc many possible spellings of this name) I suspect they never did marry.
Many thanks

Hi
Just searched on the disc for these two and can't find anything, whatever way I search, even assuming that her maiden name may have been different, or she was married before, I can't find anything.
Where were they born, it's possible one of them was already married.

Presumably this is the daughter to whom you refer.......

 MYERS Sarah Jane
 Father: Joseph
 Mother: Eliza EKHARTD
 Birth Place: INGL
Year: 1860
Reg Number: 16997


This would appear to be the only birth in Vic to this couple.

Did the daughter marry?

It would have been nice if you had given us all the information you already have...

What was the date and place of marriage for Joseph and Eliza on Susannah's birth certificate?

What was Joseph's occupation?

Perhaps Eliza was in SA before going to Victoria.

South Australian Register (Friday 2 January 1852)

WILL CLEAR OUT THIS DAY.     Friday, January 2— The barque Helena, 266 tons, Buskin, master, for Melbourne. Passengers ...... Eliza STALLARD and two children

MRS. ELIZA STALLARD, late of Yass, and since of Adelaide, is requested to write to her sister, M. A., Post-office, Deniliquin, Edward River

The Argus (Wednesday 22 October 1856)

MRS. ELIZA STALLARD, your sister, M. A., is in Melbourne. A letter for you is left at the office of this paper.

Maria Stallard, b. 1850 Adelaide m. Ross 03 Mar 1866 Hokitika, Westland, West Coast New Zealand


Yorkslady seems to agree with you Debra.
The only John STALLARD I can find was an exconvict who died in NSW (Dubbo) aged 60 in 1869.

 This is many years after the supposed marriage to JOSEPH MYERS.

Was there another of the name in SA do you think?

Debra & myself have left replies on the other thread in regards to an EKHART family emigrating to Australia, which includes the daughters who a were not born in NSW.
