Is there any evidence that Georgeanna (Georgina) Perfect married John Henry Kenny?

Question

Georgeanna was born in Suffolk about 1863.She migrated to Western Australia with the Girls Friendly Society. She had a son to John Henry Kenny. The son’s name was George Henry Kenny. I have no evidence that the father existed except a photo of a grave in East Perth. Any ideas would be appreciated.

You can get the very basic information on the Department of Justice Government of Western Australia search page.  There's also an option to purchase certificates.

A Georgina Perfect married a Thomas Anthony Bergin in Perth, the marriage being registered in 1900 (registration number 1343). There is nothing to say it is the same Georgina who was the mother to the Kenny children.  Equally, from the search results index, there is nothing to say it is not.

Thanks Melanie.  It is the same Georgeanna / Georgina.  From my records I have evidence that John Henry Kenny died in 1898 and is buried in East Perth cemetery.  However, I cannot find any evidence that he and Georgina actually married.  In their son's marriage announcement it states that he is the only son of Georgina and the late John Henry Kenny.
