Annie Tunaley
b. Manchester 1877.
m. David Yates, 26/9/1897.
According to Annie's marriage certificate, witnesses to the
marriage are Harry Roberts and Beatrice Garside.
Annie is given as resident at "18 Manchester Street" and David
resident at "3 Sykes Street".
Of particular interest is that Annie's father, Matthew Henry
Tunaley ("Joiner and Builder"), is given as "deceased". Yet,
according to records, in 1897 Matthew married one Mary Mason in
a small townshp called Drake, in N.S.W., Australia close to
the Queensland border.
This was two years before Matthew ended his days at the Toowoomba
(S. Queensland) Hospital close Brisbane and over the border from
Drake.
No record has been found of a divorce between Matthew Henry and
Mary (Stafford).
N.B. Annie's marriage was conducted at the Parish Church in the
Parish of St. Elizabeth, Reddish which is now part of Stockport,
Greater Manchester. |
