Hello Leone Its another Hazel, this time in Waipukurau, Hawkes Bay, NewZealand. I have a Willam Watts born in Ramsbury in 1811who married Mary Ann Alexander in Tasmania in 1860. Is this the same man that married Sussanna George?I am an Alexander descendant. I have lived in New Zealand since 1953 when my parents emigrated to New Zealand with my two older brothers and myself.
