We have a marriage certificate showing their wedding at All Saints Parish Church, Beaconsfield in the division of Kimberley 1st May 1889. Amelia is shown as 18 and Walter 23. We can find hundreds of Walter Smiths in the UK but no decent pointers. For example we know that Amelia had returned to the UK early 1904, or a little earlier, as her daughter Madge (Marjorie) was born here in 1904. Amelia married my wife's grandfather in 1906 and the marriage certificate says Amelia was a widow. So did Walter Smith die in S.A. or did he come to the UK with Amelia? If anyone can help we would appreciate it.
