Does Australia have an equivalent to our Papers Past? Denise

Hi Olwyn, Could the Anderson occupation be something like slater and plasterer. No thoughts on the other two so far calvin On 14/03/2015 4:22 p.m., Olwyn Whitehouse via wrote: > http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nzbound/glasgow1874.htm > > P 1 Anderson Occupation Station ? > P2 Jack; Peter Occupation Rope ?

To further confuse the topic of 'size' !!! <quote> *Sizing* or *size* is any one of numerous specific substances that is applied to or incorporated in other material, especially papers and textiles, to act as a protecting filler <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_%28materials%29> or glaze <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coating>. Sizing is used in papermaking <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papermaking> and textile manufacturing <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textile_manufacturing> to change the absorption and wear characteristics of those materials; it is the term used for oil-based surface preparation for gilding <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilding> (and is also known as /mordant <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mordant>/ in this context); and it is used by painters and artists to prepare paper and textile surfaces for some art techniques. Sizing also refers to the process of including or applying the substance. <end quote> Cheers Ainslie.

According to wikipedia *Sisal* (/ <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English>ˈ <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>s <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>aɪ <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>s <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>ə <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>l <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>/ <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English>^[2] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sisal#cite_note-2> ), with the botanical name /*Agave sisalana*/, is a species of /Agave <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agave>/ native to southern Mexico but widely cultivated and naturalized in many other countries. It yields a stiff fibre <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber> used in making various products. The term sisal may refer either to the plant's common name or the fibre, depending on the context. It is sometimes referred to as "sisal hemp", because for centuries hemp <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemp> was a major source for fibre, and other fibre sources were named after it. The sisal fibre is traditionally used for rope <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope> and twine <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twine>, and has many other uses, including: paper <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper>, cloth <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloth>, wall coverings, carpets <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpet>, and dartboards <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dartboard>.

Hello Looking for a death notice of Keith William BISHOP died Auckland 19 April 1958 Thanks Jocelyn

Thank you for the help with the spelling. It was fun reading the replies. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nzbound/glasgow1874.htm I haven't been able to work out the ten couples who went to Timaru. I will go though the list and compare the names to the Timaru Cemetery database and see if I can spot anyone. About 39 families and only ten went to Timaru. The Murdoch's ended up in Timaru and the Grant family in Oxford / Kaiapoi.

Olwyn - my suggestions - ANDERSON - slater + plasterer ?JACK P - rope + sisal maker ?JACK M - Antrim (- I scrolled on through the following pages to find something similar for another passenger.........!!)

Hi Folks If sks is looking up, my previous Hill death notices, I would appreciate a lookup for Herbert Hill who died on 6/4/1962 in ChCh. Thanks. Regards Gordon

According to a tree on google they had a son Graeme Walter Hill born 1927, died 1975 and a son Brian Peter Hill.
