Hello Pamela, I'm sorry, I have not been able to find the marriage of a THORBURN in the NZ indexes between 1920 and 1955 to one of the surnames you have listed. There are, however, the marriages of Jean THORBURN in 1929 to PRINGLE, David Frank # 4992 and Jean THORBURN in 1938 to KERBY, Henry Percival # 2583 Our indexes do not list the names of the parents or the place of marriage. Happy hunting.

HBH 1892 Sept 15 DOWNES Edward Waipawa The man Edward DOWNES, who met with an accident on Monday, died at the hospital last night. An inquest will be held in the morning as witnesses reside at a distance, and the police are today making the requisite inquiries. The principal facts, so far as I can learn, care these: Deceased was out of work, and had been about town for a few days, having come from OTAGO in search of employment. He met with a man who had taken out a bush-felling contract somewhere beyond Hampden. His employer went on horseback, but whether at the same time it is not known. A dray containing goods, including a large packing case, and driven by Richard STAUNTON, was going to Hampden, and deceased was allowed to travel by it, sitting on top of the big case. Somewhere on the road the dray went into a deep rut and jolted the man off, and he fell in front of the wheels, which passed over him, inflicting severe internal injuries, and he bled freely. The driver conveyed him to the Hampden Hotel, and Dr. GODFRAY was sent for, and on seeing the state he was in ordered him to be taken to the hospital, which was done, but the poor man succumbed last night. It is a serious coincidence that the accident occurred on the same road as a recent similar case, when a bullock-driver of Mr. HASTIE'S fell off a dray and was fatally injured, and STAUNTON was present on that occasion and saw the accident from a short distance.

HBH 1892 Sept 14 JACOBSEN and CHRISTIANSEN THE JACOBSEN CASE Messrs SAINSBURY and LOGAN, solicitors to the Board, wrote in reply to questions put to them in connection with a case raised at the preceding meeting of the Board by Mr S.JOHNSON, almoner for the Board at WAIPAWA. It appeared that a man named JACOBSEN, a widower with several children, and the owner of a farm section and a house at NORSEWOOD, some time ago started from the latter place to go to PAHIATUA, to fell bush. He had money in the bank, and was said to have £30 sewn into the lining of his waistcoat. One of the children could not support herself, and he left her with a Mrs CHRISTIANSEN at NORSEWOOD, promising to send money for the child's support. He was never heard of again, and did not reach PAHIATUA, nor could he be traced to any other place. Somebody had put it about that the man had gone back to DENMARK, or which country he was a relative, but a letter written to a relative in that country dissipated that view, and the general opinion was that he was be dead. Prior to leaving Norsewood he locked up his household furniture and other belongings in one of the four rooms his house contained, and gave authority to a man named WINGER to let the house. The woman with whom the child was left could not afford to keep it, and applied to Mr JOHNSON for relief, when the above facts were elicited. The question submitted to the Board's solicitors was as to the property owned by JACOBSEN could be made to contribute towards the support of his child. The reply was to the effect that the case was provided for in the Destitute Persons Act, 1887, and that a magistrate could issue a summons under that Act which need not necessarily be served upon the parent if he could not be found. All other necessary proceedings were provided for. It was decided to refer the reply of the Board's solicitors to Mr JOHNSON, for him to take the necessary proceedings.
