Number: 8264 there were a number of people with the surname marrying late in the 1800s - and they were all from New Zealand - were they children or grandchildren of Grace and Rudolph? - I feel there is a chance that Rudolph and Grace went to NZ to have some children - maybe almost immediately after 1867? - and then returned some years later?
