Happy Face.. Sending you a private message... Alice died in Wellington NZ 28th Jan 1949 aged 80 years. Their son Austin Walker was born in NZ from what I have found.Austin was the oldest child born to Alice and Robert. Their youngest son Albert died in Wellington 18th March 1937 aged 45 years...Albert married Edith Doris Ambridge.. They had a son Vernon Hinemoa Walker.. That sounds like a Maori name to me.. Hinemoa..

Why dont you contact Cherilyn on this site.. She is very good with historical info about NZ..

Couple of questions here... Did Alice and Robert marry in NZ and do you know where they are burried?? Also wondering about the Name Hinemoa as this is a Maori name...Very famours one as well..There does not seem to be a male meaning for this name only female meaning being Lady In Love..If Alice and Robert did marry in NZ you could find out more perhaps on Robert from their marriage Cert... The Family History Wellington Archives might be able to help...And the Wellington City Council..

So Alice and Robert were married in Bromley.. What was Roberts Fathers name? I think it would be in your advantage to check out that link and if need be make some phone calls.. Thats if you live in NZ... My brother lives in Wellington.

How do you know they were married in Bromley? Their first child was born in NZ.. Do you have the ref number for the marriage..

Thats right you said on the Death Cert for Alice married in Bromley

**The Lady Marion** · 08-08-2009 08:43 AM

Are you sure Alice was born in Bromley? To find out more on Robert you really need to have their Marriage Cert.. I think it would be a good idea to search out Cherilyn.. Go to search at the top then type in Cherilyn.. If you like you can mention I have been trying to help... Are you also sure Alice was born in Bromley? You must have all the facts if possible.
