Both of my grandparents had the birth name Green and so Nan did not have to change her last name upon marriage. 



So here we have the marriage of the two people surnamed GREEN..
Is that correct?

 
21643/1935  GREEN George W R
GREEN (other) Name deleted as I have not yet located her death.
At BROKEN HILL

Walter GREEN and George GREEN considered themselves brothers of the EVERUSS siblings.  The EVERUSS sons were the nephews and cousins of the GOUDIE family.

For your interest,
The wife of your grandfather was born in 1918 at Broken Hill.

Her parents appear to have had several children.
