Henry William THOMPSON was supposedly born in or near Dargaville, Northland. His age varies slightly but he would have been born around 1898-1900. His marriage certificate from Western Australia states
===========
Certificate of Marriage WA No.1836
18 Nov 1938, District registrar's Office, Perth
Henry William THOMPSON
38; bachelor; signwriter; b. Auckland NZ; residence Outram St Perth
father William THOMPSON; contractor
mother Ivy Christina ROBERTSON
Roma Ruby EDWARDS
26; spinster; nurse; b. Branxholm TAS; residence Geraldton
father Percy William EDWARDS; farmer
mother Olive Augusta DIPROSE
Witnessed by R V Croxton, Alfred Richards
=========
Supposedly, because no record has yet been found of his birth. His children remember that he spoke of Dargaville rather than Auckland.
Does anyone else descend from William THOMPSON and Ivy Christina ROBERTSON? Or can you tell me where else I might find info on this family, from Australia (where I live)?
thanks
