Austin Dobson supposedly married Cathleen Margaret Graham in New Zealand about 1930. Cathleen, born in NZ in 1870, was registered at birth as "Cathleen Margaret Graham GARLAND" but later used the surname "GRAHAM". I have been unable to find any record for Austin Dobson (in NZ or elsewhere). Can anybody help please?

Kathleen (Kay) Isobel Graham, daughter of Jim Graham and Rose (McBride) Graham, married Mark Lysons in 1936. If this is the same Kay that married Austin Dobson in 1930, could you please contact me again, via the Profile Manager on Kay's profile (www.wikitree.com/wiki/Graham-3522)

There are a number of A. Dobson's who immigrated to New Zealand, one to Aukland in 1889, and others to Wellington 16 Oct 1912, 2 Dec 1889,  14Aug, 1921, 1921, 24 Nov 1909, and so on.

A Margaret Graham was born in New Zealand in est. birth year of 1871, she immigrated to Seattle, King, Washington in 1925 at the age of 54.

A Catherine Graham immigrated to New Zealand. She departed Monaghan (Ireland?) 14 Jan 1873 and arrived in New Zealand 7 May 1873 at Auckland, NZ.  

A Margaret Graham left Antriim, (Ireland, I assume) 29 Aug 1874 on the Pleides and arrived New Zealand 16 Dec 1874 at Canterbury.

The list continues at familysearch.org .

I have searched the NZSG Marriages disc and found that the marriage of Austin Dobson to Kathleen Margaret Graham was registered in 1930. Folio No. 01021.

The Historical BDM indexes show an Austin Dobson death  regiistered in 1991. His birth date shows as 29 Jan 1905. His death certificate should show his place of birth if the person giving the info knew. Get back to me if you want to know ordering details.
