Hi All is there any way that I can find the compensation that as paid out as a result of a work related death in NZ back in 1957. The person killed was my father thanks Colleen

There has been more than one change of whether you can access electoral rolls or not. As far as I know you now can, but as has always been the case, you have to visit an electoral office to look at the rolls. Sue, if you message me off list, I can have a look as there is an electoral office near me.

What are you asking for Sue?  Please clarify, Is it the name Melbourne?  If so, what electorate or area? Or are you asking about electoral rolls in Melbourne, Australia?  I don't think electoral rolls there are available to the public.

Robert Wesley Kawithi is an intriguing name. Kawiti (no h) was a really significant Māori leader in Northland (my part of NZ) in the 1840s - see https://teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/1k4/kawiti-te-ruki I wonder why he was named that?

Hi Beth The currency shares its name with a unit of weight because a British pound originally held the same worth as one lb of silver.

Hi Jenny, Found this link today and we appear to be on same wavelength. We are friends of Betsy McKenna daughter of Maurice MCKenna and Eileen Radford. Betsy says Bessie Tehan/Teahan came to NZ with a sister. Unfortunately Betsy not in best of health so takes a bit to get information but will keep trying. I think sister married and lived in Pleasant Point area but can’t find a marriage. My email grahamanda119@gmail.com <mailto:grahamanda119@gmail.com> In the meantime you might have more info. I work off Ancestry. Thanks Amanda Jack

I would think that the plot numbers would not have altered since 1871. Contact the local authority Thames Coromandel District Council. They may be able to help you.

Hello - I came across a reference to some property that was sold in 1871 and it mentions the lots/section involved. I realise that the lots would not hold the same numbers today. Can anyone advise how I could locate the exact area that these lots covered? The price was also mentioned - 55L . . . does anyone know what this amount equates to? Thanks, Beth

Whatever happened to CAS Theatre? with Murray Edmond Wednesday 13 November, 12pm-1pm Whare Wānanga, Level 2, Central City Library, Auckland Whatever happened to Auckland's first professional theatre? Join Murray Edmond for an engaging talk about Auckland’s Community Arts Service Theatre, known as CAS Theatre. In New Zealand, after the Second World War, many cultural institutions, such as the National Library and Landfall magazine, were founded and found financial support - but theatre was slow to join the new institutions. In Auckland, a number of writers produced plays, but who would stage them? Auckland’s Community Arts Service Theatre was founded by adult education staff at Auckland University College in 1946. CAS Theatre, as it was known, was Auckland's first professional theatre, lasting from 1946 to 1962. This talk is associated with the heritage collections exhibition, Curtain Up! Booking is not essential but is recommended. To book please phone Research Central on 09 890 2412 or book online. https://www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/pages/event.aspx?eventid=8337 About HeritageTalks: Are you interested in family and local history; the historical stories of New Zealand, the Pacific, and beyond?

Special family history event! Wednesday 27 November, 12pm to 3pm Whare Wānanga, Level 2, Central City Library, Auckland Join visiting UK genealogist, Sylvia Valentine, for an afternoon of family history topics. Topics we will cover will be: · Researching Workhouse Records in England and Wales Workhouse records are more than the admission or discharge of a pauper ancestor. The Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 created a bureaucratic system across England and Wales to manage local poor law unions, and while not all records have survived, those that have frequently name individuals with a connection to the workhouse. These include suppliers of foodstuffs and clothing, and services such as dentistry. Your ancestor might have been a workhouse employee or one who oversaw daily management. Sylvia explains the records you might be able to find, from absconding parents to apprentice and smallpox vaccination records. · The Dawson Orphans - From the Workhouse to Oxford University Starting with a letter discovered in a workhouse letter book, Sylvia set out to research the story of the five Dawson orphans born in the early nineteenth century. This talk shows how a researcher can use a variety of resources to put together a family history, and how she has pieced the Dawson’s story together using more than twenty-five resources. Spoiler alert! Sadly, there are no happy endings for the brothers. · Smallpox Vaccination Records for Family History Smallpox vaccination records might seem an unlikely source for family historians but, where they have survived, they might just help you break through that 'brick wall'. This presentation discusses the history of smallpox vaccination, resistance to compulsory vaccination, and suggestions for locating any records, primarily within England and Wales. Please note start and finish times for each of the talks this afternoon are approximate only. Speaker biography Sylvia Valentine is a UK based researcher and has been researching her own family history for almost 40 years. After retiring from a 30-year career working in the charity sector, she became a student of the University of Dundee, and graduated in 2016 with a Master of Letters degree in Family and Local History. She is now a doctoral candidate researching Opposition to Compulsory Smallpox Vaccination in Scotland in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. She owns her own research company, Recover Your Roots, researching particularly in northern England and Scotland. Her specialist area of interest are the records created by the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834 - and compulsory smallpox vaccination. Sylvia is an Honorary Teaching Fellow of the University of Dundee and delivers their online family history courses. She is also the Doctoral Fellow 2019 for the Centre for Scottish Studies. She is a Director of the Register of Qualified Genealogists, (RQG) a member of the Association of Scottish Genealogists and Researchers in Archives, (ASGRA) and is an Associate member of the Association and Genealogists and Researchers in Archives (AGRA).

Wednesday 6 November is a busy day at Central Auckland Library, with Max Cryer and "The Kiwi speaks" at 12pm https://www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/pages/event.aspx?eventid=6765 and Dr Polly Sussex "The musical adventures of Sarah Mathew? at 1pm https://www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/pages/event.aspx?eventid=6764 In the evening we also have an authors talk! Colonial businesswomen in New Zealand with author Dr Catherine Bishop Wednesday 6 November, 6pm to 7.30pm Whare Wānanga, Level 2, Central City Library, Auckland Join us to hear about Dr Catherine Bishop's book 'Women mean business: colonial businesswomen in New Zealand'. Join us for a cuppa from 5pm. Event starts at 6pm. ‘The greatest comefort to me is to get an honest living for my familey’. Boarding-house-keeper Susannah Wall’s words echo the sentiments of many colonial women in New Zealand who ran small businesses - although not all were as concerned about the ‘honesty’ of their living. Female-founded businesses include ‘Milne and Choyce’ and ‘Smith and Caughey’s’ but what about the Mclaughlin sisters’ drapery, Mary Ann Brassey’s school, mess-woman Louisa Darby or Sophia Paris James’ Q.C.E. Hotel? In this talk, Catherine Bishop, the author of Women Mean Business (Otago University Press), explores the stories of some of New Zealand's colonial entrepreneurs - the successful and the outright failures, the heart-warming and the tragic, the everyday and the scandalous. 
 Born and raised in Whanganui, Dr Catherine Bishop is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Macquarie University in Sydney. Her first book Minding Her Own Business: Colonial Businesswomen in Sydney (NewSouth Publishing, 2015) won the prestigious 2016 Ashurst Business Literature Prize. This is her second book. Booking is not essential but is recommended. To book please phone Research Central on 09 890 2412 or book online. https://www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/pages/event.aspx?eventid=7780 The following day, we are blessed with another author's talk: From Taranto to Trieste with author Jennifer Mallinson Thursday 7 November, 6pm to 7.30pm Whare Wānanga, Level 2, Central City Library, Auckland Join Jennifer Mallinson as she takes a modern journey across Italy in the path of the 2nd New Zealand Division. Join us for a cuppa from 5pm. From disembarking in 1943 Taranto, peacekeeping in the political hotbed of Trieste, and disbanding after the war, the impressions and experiences of the soldiers are recalled as they passed through the land, including the action areas of Abruzzo and Cassino. Using the military and political historical context, Jennifer explains the story of the Kiwi experience, embellished by personal reflections and notes on the physical and cultural environment. Interesting ‘detours’ to irresistible and often hidden attractions are included! Booking is not essential but is recommended. To book please phone Research Central on 09 890 2412 or book online. https://www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/pages/event.aspx?eventid=7776 ---------------------- About HeritageTalks
