Hello, At my wife's late uncles funeral recently it was mentioned that he had been with search & rescue in the North Island as he was a keen mountaineer and had climbed with Hillary back before Everest. Anyway he was involved in the search and recovery of bodies after the Tangiwai disaster in 1953. Search & Rescue has to my mind always been a branch of NZ Police, so perhaps an enquiry to the Police College in Porirua would assist with your enquiries. Regards Alister Gould Invercargill

Hello Chris This family is in 'OASES' a database I have -- Otago & Southland Early Settlers Can't help you with the cousins - Walker is a very popular name here :) I have sent under separate email a descendancy narrative Bob M On 14/11/2014 9:45 a.m., Goldstraw via wrote: > Hello listers, > > I am interested if anyone is researching WALKER.

Hello listers, I am interested if anyone is researching WALKER. My great grandmother was Jane (Jean ) WALKER who married David Patrick. She was born Bothkennar, Stirling, Scotland in 1849. She and David went to NZ c 1879, where they had three children, Davina b 1880 (Dunedin), David b 1883 (Dunedin) and James b 1887 (Dunedin). They then came to Australia c 1890. I have always wondered why they went to NZ and have since found Jane's siblings so decided maybe I should see if any of them were in NZ. All the siblings were born at Bothkennar, Stirling, Scotland. The parents were John WALKER and Helen RAE. John's parents were James WALKER and Catherine NIVEN. Helen's parent's were Peter RAE and Jane (Jean ) BOYD. James WALKER b 1848, Peter WALKER b 1852 d ? Catherine Niven WALKER b 1854 Helen WALKER b 1856 Janet WALKER b 1858 John WALKER b 1860 Peter WALKER b 1864 My grandfather David told me once he had cousins in Invercargill but I haven't found who they might have been. Hoping for some connection or information. Many thanks Chris Australia

Hello all. Wondering if anyone has any info about a Search + Rescue service operating in the King Country sometime around 1920 - 1930ish. My grandfather claimed that he was involved in this service ( he called it Sea + Rescue ) but I cannot find any reference to such a service operating. Hopefully I am just looking in the wrong place . . . ! Thanks. Any info would be appreciated. Beth

YOUNG Frederick William - Auckland - Canon Holy Orders (R14787774) 1962 - 1962 Item ID Agency Series Accession Record group Box / Item Sep Record no. Part Alternative no. Record type R14787774 BBAE 1570 A645 1684 / P3253/1962 Text If anyone was heading towards the Auckland Archives & may have some time to do a look up for me with the above information, it would be appreciated. I havd thought I had the correct family but now have my doubts as there is another Frederick William Young who married Ngawini Harris in Northland. The above details are for a Minister/Reverend & I just wondered if there were any other names mentioned that may help me eliminate if possible. Many thanks Barbara (Far North)

Thank you to Sue King for her reply to my request. I now have the death notice required Regards Eileen Smith Christchurch --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com
