This one has no middle initial, but there's only Walter C's birth and another in 1868 that might seem to tally with the approximate age.:

it's probably the other chap, as despite being born in Westmoreland, he married in London:

Name:Walter Heseltine <<Native of England

Birth Date:abt 1874

Death Age:72

Death Date:11 Feb 1946

Burial Place:Manawatu, Horowhenua, New Zealand

Cemetery:Levin

Spouse Name:Mary E Heseltine

I'd been looking along those lines, Gins.

First found this marriage:

Marriages Jun 1903
Bennett Mary Emma Skipton 9a 85
Heseltine Walter Skipton 9a 85
(Have paired off the other people on the entry)

Then there is this Australian Electoral Roll:

Name: Mary Emma Heseltine
Gender: Female
Electoral Year: 1912
Subdistrict: Cohuna
State: Victoria
District: Wimmera
Country: Australia
Residence Address: Cohuna
Occupation: Home Duties

With husband Walter, a labourer. They're there in 1913 too.

They arrived in 1910.

New Zealand, Cemetery Records, 1800-2007

Name: Mary Emma Heseltine
Birth Date: abt 1871
Death Age: 88
Death Date: 23 Aug 1959
Burial Place: Manawatu, Horowhenua, New Zealand
Cemetery: Levin
Spouse Name: Walter Heseltine (widow of).

Lived Roslyn Road. Native of England.

I guess the only way to check is to buy the marriage certificate that MC has found (check the fathers name)

You could also buy the death certificate for Walter

Welcome to the Community Boards Maureen.



(I'll let Maureen know how to find her replies) :-)

Thank you folk for your information. Your replies seem to indicate that Walter did marry and emigrate to New Zealand though I haven't found shipping departure details and the date 1910 would fit in. My grandmother Florence (Walter"s sister in law) had a baby boy in 1913 and called him Walter. Unfortunately he only lived a few months. Cheers Maureen.

24/6/1910 London to Australia ship Otway
Walter Heseltine a farmer no age given.
Mary wife.

1891 for your Walter he is a Blacksmith.I wonder where he is 1901?

The thing is there was a Walter Heseltine born 1874 in Lincolnshire. I can't find him 1901.
Also there is a Walter Heseltine on 1920s electoral roll in Skipton area. Same area as the 1903 wedding.
