aghadowey,
so Maria married in Manorcunningham 3rd April 1879 as a minor
Her parents and siblings left for kiwi on 29 May 1879

At least it puts Maria and some family in Manorcunningham and the dates are good. She may have traveled over on the same ship. I'm sure you are well aware how inaccurate (online/newspaper) shipping lists are. Just because she and hubby weren't mentioned doesn't mean to say she wasn't on it. Or they traveled later.

Two things are factual. She married over there and she married over here. Just have to find out what happened in the middle  (why she married in maiden name)

[aghadowey]

Maria Louisa Colhoun married in 2nd Ray Presbyterian Church which was outside Manorcunningham-

If she and George separated/he died/he left her, etc. they she might easily have resumed using her maiden name. The important point is checking her marital status on the marriage to Timothy Manner.

Evening all,

This is one of two topics dealing with the same subject. Merging them is likely to result in a loss of continuity and a very confusing read.

Keeping the OP's best interests at heart and with a view to keeping information in one place, I recommend that this topic now be considered closed (though not locked), and that all further posts regarding this family be placed on this topic on the New Zealand Board:
