Mary was actually born in 1896. On Xmas Day 1896 at the Alexandra Home in Newtown, Wellington
What a dreadful place it was. Go to link
Check out the baby trolleys in 1944 :)
Did Emily adopt her out? or did she bring her up once married?
I wrote a journal 4 years ago on the family of Charles Krieg (Emily's husband) in case you don't have this info
I think Emily did adopt Mary out. I have been told that Mary may have spent some time up the Whanganui River possibly with a Maori group/family in a place called Jerusalem or nearby? I have sent a couple of emails out to organisations but have had no response so far.
