I am trying to find a Margaret Taylor born c1853 Durham England who married Maxmillian Klingner on 30 Sep 1876 in Brisbane Australia. She was aged 23 at time of her marriage.
Her parents were Richard Taylor (farmer) and Ann Robinson.
I obtained this information from her marriage certificate. I have found Maxmillian & Margaret's descendants in Australia (one being me) but unfortunately, I do not know anything about her or her family in England.
Thanks
Annette (Australia)

Thanks for your quick replies to my "Trying to find" message for help.
However, doesn't this mean that Ann Taylor was Ann Local before she was married and not Ann Robinson as stated on Margaret's marriage Certificate.

Also 1881 England Census states -
Margaret Currey Head 28 widow
Mary Currey 10 daughter
John Currey 4 son
Ann Taylor 55 mother widow
John Local 42 uncle
This seems to confirm that we have the wrong Margaret Taylor.
By 1881, my Margaret Taylor had married Maxmillian Klingner in Australia.

I am open to any other suggestions or avenues for me to investigate.
Thanks for all you help.
