I have a marriage of Alberto E Hill and a Paulina Javier in the Philippines in 1925 and I was wondering where to go next. Alberto was born Albert but on this record he is Alberto.
I cannot seem to find any further Philippine records online that mention them so don't know what happened to them or if hey had children. Any pointers would be greatly recieved.

Regards

Rhys

Try searching the records on Family Search.

Is this possibly Paulina?


Paulina Javier
Philippines, Manila, Civil Registration
Name Paulina Javier
Event Type Birth
Event Date 15 May 1904
Event Place Manila, Metropolitan Manila, Philippines
Gender Female
Mother's Name Jacoba Javier
Entry Number 2697


FS shows quite a few Hills born in the Philippines, a few of which might be the result of a 1925 marriage - but the records are from later in those people's lives, so further research would be needed to try to find their parents' names.

This is the information I have on Paulina

Spouse Paulina Javier
Father William H. Gill
Mother Violet Gill

Also search Ancestry for people surname Gill, born Philippines after 1925 - quite a few later-life records are shown - mostly from USA - army enlistment, naturalisation, and the like.
Mostly no sign of parents' names.
