Help please to find marriage of Charles Woolford

[slewis]

Hi I have been trying to find a marriage for Charles Woolford born 1794 in Yattendon, Berkshire, England, he married Bridget Duffy born 1798 Ireland possibly between 1822 and 1828 I have tried the UK with no luck.

They had 4 children possibly 5 all born in Austrailia
James 1824 Hobart ?
Thomas 1828 Sydney
Charles 1831
Joseph 1833 Sydney
Mary Ann 1837 Sydney
Im not sure about James,

I believe Thomas moved to New Zealand but the rest of the family stayed in Austrailia
If any one can find a marriage for Charles and Bridget i would be ever so greatfull
kind regards Sue

Searching NSW family history index, births, on other than exact key Woolford i.e W*ord, father Charles, returns possible alternate spellings or mistranscriptions.

As you say, no sign marriage, woolford or alternative.

the baptism of James WOLFORD on 23 Nov 1824 (born 1 Nov 1824) at Hobart with parents Charles and Bridget says they were married in Ireland.

You possibly already have this information:

As the children in NSW were born in Port Macquarie, I'm assuming that this is Charles WOOLFORD mentioned in the Index to Colonial Secretaries Letters in 1832 at Port Macquarie. He is from the 39th Regiment (discharged), and with his wife they were appointed as watch house keeper and matron.

From what I can see, the 39th regiment were in Tasmania from at least Dec 1824. You can see paylists and other details here:

Others more knowledgeable about military history may be able to advise, however this wikipedia article also mentions the 39th regiment were in Ireland after 1818.
