Note on Husband: Benjamin Kinsman DEELEY (2)

Doris was his 2nd wife. His 1st wife was Christina Blanche HOWARD whom he married in 1904 and possibly 3 (Dau?) chn. He was a jockey and possibly a furrier. I have been into Papers Past and he seems to have got into a bit of trouble with the racing authorities from time to time. His brother was arrested for murder but died before it came to trial. I have just picked up the information and newspaper write-ups about this last week. Benjamin and Doris were divorced. Benjamin had possibly 5 sisters and 2 brothers. Although this family is not my main interest, I have been doing a bit on this family lately. My main interest is the GEE family who came from Madehurst in West Sussex and London and arrived in NZ in 1851 and settled in Christchurch and Lyttelton.
