There is an online tree for the following :

born :   Denmark - 29 March 1869 (Oster-Logum, Aaberaa-Sondeborg)
Parents:  Peter Thomsen LINDHOLT (spelling as given on tree)
and Johanne Ulrikka OLSEN/NEILSON

Tree contains a reference to Johanne having married Charles Frederick NELSON.
[*  NZSG Marriages has the marriage as Johanne LINDHOLD - Carl Frederick NELSON - 1883 ]

[Carl NELSON pops up in newspaper items from c. 1875, in the Wakatipu (Southland) area. ]

MURPHY/BURKE and McBRIDE family trees (@ ancestry) :

One (or both ?) of above trees have noted the marriage in New South Wales of >

Ruby Mary SWAIN to Henry H. BURKE -- 1912 (NSW)

and her death in 1972. 

Further, there is a note of a birth of a "Ruby Mary SWAIN on 21 November 1891 at Invercargill, New Zealand".   [Using resources other than NZBDM, I haven't managed to find that birth ... yet. ]
------------------

Tigerprawn   ... is this Ruby Mary (SWAIN) the person you are connected to ??
