    3. Hi Ann, Yes, all places mentioned are in NSW. The link I sent is to the Australian online maps/street directory. Use the slider on the left-hand side to expand to the State to show where the towns are, or type the name of a town in the search box under Address. Click onto the Directions box to type in two places if you want to find how far distant they are from each other. On the map there is a town named Gillenbah just outside of Narrandera. I am wondering if the person who transcribed the marriage record had difficulty deciphering the placename and has entered the marriage entry twice to cover the difference in spelling? I've come across this situation before, so it might explain why there are four entries, and also explain why the two marriage entries appear to be nearly 800kms apart. Some notes on Gillenbah and Narrandera - http://www.wagga.nsw.gov.au/resources/documents/Short_History_Riverina_Wheat_Industry.pdf Cheers Trish > Trish, thanks for that.
