Hello everyone, I'm Lorna Clauson, (retired Commerce Teacher) NZ, but half Australian as my dad was born in Dubbo. (Hope that helps!) I'm trying to find the man who married my grandmother in NZ in 1878 - I'm descended from her second marriage. Their marriage certificate gives his place of birth as Edinburgh, and at age 25 would have been born c1853. No birth certificate has been found. Not long after their daughter was born he deserted wife and child and went to Australia, never to be seen or heard of again. No trace of his name has been found on shipping records so he probably travelled under an assumed name. However we recently discovered the following. He seems to have used any of the following names: Henry Mordaunt Cramond, Mordaunt Cramond Gunn, or Mordaunt Cramond Booth Gunn. According to a marriage certificate from NSW a person of the latter name married Miney Booth in Newcastle in May 1881. Booth-Gunn's occupation was listed as "surgeon" on this Marriage Cert. I should be most grateful for any information on this person as none of his family in NZ can find any trace of him. Thanks a lot.
