Hi to all that has helped with searching for Alice Brown, I have found Alice's birth name is Eveline Jean Elizabeth Brown born Waitaki Canterbury New Zealand 19/4/1866 I also found her death from the Cemetery where her son is buried under the name Evelyn Burgess died 11/7/1978 now to find her parents in New Zealand,they say it is quiet hard to get information. Thank you once again.

* * * * * *

Well from above (but looks muddling!) what are details from her Birth Cert., and Marriage Cert., regarding Daniel etc...

Quite a bit relating to Australia and New Zealand available on Ancestry, Find My Past etc...also google brings up Cemeteries online as well as other Records for which area.
