Kerry Report 9 Jun 2011 22:02

Hello could I please have some help with Emma Tunmore born about 1849. Have decided to go back to what I know about my Emma. On her death cert. father was George and her maiden name was TUNMORE. Died in July 1931 at the age of 82 years. Born England.
Married to George Plumridge and arrive Fremantle W Australia on the Chollerton in 1887 with 2 children Charles and Lily. They had a child in 1890 in Albany WA and her maiden name was TUNMORE . The only marriage info that could match is BETHNEL GREEN 1881 1c 442. What extra information will I get from a marriage certificate. I did think that she was born in Norfolk but that is unconfirmed. Regards Kerry

Her marriage cert would give father's name and occupation, same for her husband. Also their ages an addresses (though the latter not always reliable! The names of 2 witnesses also.

Above notices from NLA Trove newspapers site. Lily's notices list extended family names.

Let me know if you need Lily's children's marriages.

Thank you all very much for your help. I found that the Emma Tunmer from Ipswich had infact died in England, so I was really on the wrong track and had to start again.
I will check things out and get it all together seeing I have had your help.
Now that I have more of an idea about Find Ancestors, I will be back!!!!!!!!
