Information Journal.

Groom: Robert TONKIN.
Age: 25 years.
Status: Not recorded.
Father: John TONKIN.

Bride: Mary WALTER.
Age: 19 years.
Status: Not recorded.
Father: Michael WALTER.

Date married: 13 January 1860.
Place: Residence of Thomas TONKIN, Callington, South Australia.

Possible death for Robert is 1922 in Hotham West, Victoria.
Age: 88 years.
Parents recorded as William TONKIN and Elizabeth WENDON.
Robert's father is recorded as John in the marriage records but I'm certain this will be him and the informant has made an error with the father's name.

Mary died 1917 in Hotham, Victoria.
Age: 80 years.
Parents recorded as Michael Walter TONKIN and Mary GLIDDEN.
Don't know why TONKIN has been included after Walter. Another error on the informants part I expect.

Ten children located South Australian records for Robert and Mary.
