so I had thought ... I had searched for the marriage in NSW and found nothing ...

I accidentally searched for William J White births instead of deaths in NSW I think :-)

and his marriage was in NSW

only the ship arrival was in QLD, unless his first marriage was there.

when you say 'still looking' does this mean you have had a previous message about this question here in the past ? or just that you have been looking and looking and are still looking :-)

A repost of this search........I am still looking for an ancestor, William James White who was born in Lancashire and came to NSW around 1872 as a 4yr old. he settled in the Casino / Lismore area and married Anna Leu in 1886. This marriage certificate says he is a widower, but I have no details of his birth or previous marrige. His death cert has no parent's listed..............Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Judy
