Marriage of Henry Dunn and Elizabeth Martha Parish

Henry Dunn married Elizabeth Martha Parish at her father's property in Unley Park, South Australia on 14 July 1868.

Elizabeth was 16 years old at the time. Henry's age was stated as 22 but there is reason to question the accuracy of this. Seven days later he boarded the ship Aldinga with his new father-in-law, Mark Parish. Henry's age was stated as 30 on the passenger list. This information leads me to believe that he was born between 1838 and 1846.
