Can anyone help me with information on my grandmother HENRIETTA MARIA VERONICA HAMILTON supposedly born Kensington, London September 1889. Henrietta married Walter Ireland (New Zealand) at St Thomas of Canterbury Church, Westhill, Wandsworth, London 13th January 1919 and they travelled to New Zealand on ship "Ionic" in March of that year. On the marriage certificate Henrietta's father was listed as George Hamilton (deceased) whose profession had been mechanical engineer. My difficulty is -I can't find any records of Henrietta's birth It was rumoured in our family Henrietta spent some of her schooling years at a convent in Paris and that later she was a governess to a 'well to do' English family. At time of marriage Henrietta gave her place of residence as 27 Galveston Road Wandsworth - being owned by family in name of Pearless. I would so appreciate any advice to enable me to start my family tree. With thanks, Lyn
