BAYLY-MARKS.-April 11, at St. Mark's, Darling Point, by the Rev. T. Kemmis, assisted by the Rev. C. Spicer, Nicholas Paget, youngest son of the late N. P. Bayly, of Mudgee, to Florence Mary, eldest daughter of the Hon. John Marks, of Glenrock, Darling Point, Sydney.

  Marriage Notes:

St Marks, Darling Point.

Florence next married Robert S Bowker [23444] [MRIN: 9326] in 1886 in Sydney District, New South Wales.²

Florence next married Arthur Shute [35417] [MRIN: 13380] on 1900 Jun 30 in New South Wales, Australia. (Arthur Shute [35417] was born before 1885.)

  Noted events in their marriage were:

Another engagement I note is that between Miss Edith Marks, eldest daughter of Mr. J. Marks, of Potts Point, and Mr. Arthur Shute. The Marks' are a very upper crust Jewish family indeed, and the number of beauties they have produced is astonishing. It was a Miss Marks, if I mistake not, who became the bride of Paget Bayly, son of Nicholas Paget Bayly, of Mudgee, one of our genuine millionaires and a cousin of the Marquis of Duglesey. It was a very fashionable affair that, and created quite a stir ; but the bridegroom died early on the honeymoon voyage to England, and his bride was a widow almost before she had begun to realise she was a wife. I have heard that the whole of the Bayly money reverted to the family, and that the bulk of it is now held by Alfred Bayly, the late Mr. Paget Bayly's brother.
