  [S3] FS, https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-GTWM-SCML?i=25&cc=1468076. Marriage entry Charlotte Hughes was one of the Kennaway girls that arrived in 1857 and married Edward Hollins. He was a private in the Cape Mounted Rifles and they moved to Grahamstown by 1862 but returned to the United Kingdom in 1864, when two squadrons of the CMR were disbanded. Edward later became a policeman, stationed in various places in the West Midlands. He died in 1886 and was buried at Napton, Warwickshire. The 1881 census shows that Charlotte was then still alive.
