Name Mary Grace REED Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Mar Q 1894 Belstone, Devon, England 
- Looking for births Mary G Reeds of a possible age to be Frederick's wife, finds 3 - one born Durham in 1894, unlikely due to location, leaving:
Reed, Mary Grace q4 1878 Plymouth RD 5b 261
- most likely based on place of birth, but a lot older than Frederick
Reed, Mary Grace q1 1894 Okehampton RD 5b 372; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Down
- most likely based on date, but born some distance from Plymouth - might they have met? The 1901 census shows that by then Mary's family had moved to Plymouth, and since she was shown as aged 30 when they emigrated, this seems to confirm it was Mary G born in Okehampton RD who Frederick married (Belstone, Mary's birthplace according to the 1901 census, was in Okehampton RD).

Family Frederick Thomas HENNINGS, b. Sep Q 1891, Plymouth, Devon, England , d. 1959, Canning, Western Australia, Australia (Age ~ 68 years) Married Sep Q 1912 Plymouth Reg Dist, Devon, England - GRO ref: Hennings, Frederick B [sic] to Reed, Mary G q3 1912 Plymouth RD 5b 576
Despite wrong middle initial I believe this is the entry for this Frederick, as the wife and children (with mother's maiden name Reed) match those emigrating with Fred T in 1924
Five Hennings children found with mother's maiden name of Reed. There was also a marriage in Greenwich of a male Hennings to a female Reed in 1910, but as all the births were in Plymouth and with over a year between each probably all the children of this couple.
Three emigrated with them, two had died in infancy.
The Western Australian birth index shows another son born in Australia; the index when last checked (2021) goes only to 1932, when Mary would have been aged 38, so it is possible there were other children born after this.
