    1. [nz]Query from over 8 years ago - Harris sons
    2. Simon Dodd
    3. I just googled my grandfather and found a query dated Feb 12, 2010. Perhaps someone could respond to the original Enquirer, as their identifier isn't an actual email address: it's Jen_min4(a)bigpond.net.au I can fill in some background, if they're still interested: - my mother, who died last month, was the elder daughter of Cecil Chetwyn Thomas Harris and his first wife. She was called Roma Laura, nee Hinton. They married in Te Aroha in 1928 (5 September or thereabouts). They had 2 daughters: Diane Blanche, born 6 December 1929 in Hawera, and Lynette Louise, born 5 July 1934 or 1935 (probably in Auckland) - he was working as a schoolmaster (and seems that's why they lived for a time in Hawera) and by 1935 they had based themselves in Auckland where he taught maths at Mt Albert Grammar School and his nickname was 'sticky' referring the the cane he must have carried with him and used a lot. - he eventually moved to the USA, continuing to work in education, remarried and eventually died in 1959 - Uncle Vere moved to Australia and had a family there. There was a woman called Shirley, who must have been his daughter I think, who contacted my mother and grandmother in the 1970s to renew family ties - Uncle Arthur had been a policeman but then turned to farming and lived with Una and their 5 children at Miranda, not far south of Auckland. They are all still alive, but Arthur and Una have gone now. - my mother's sister Lynette, still lives in Los Angeles where she went in the late 1950s to be with her father after turning 21. She has 3 sons from her marriage )which ended in divorce, and her ex-husband is now also deceased) Hope this addresses some of your queries. I've never even seen my great grandmother's grave in Wellington, so might have to make an effort next time I'm there. Thanks, and Kind regards Simon Dodd

    3. Next Wednesday's HeritageTalk at Central City Library: Creating the change with Sue Berman and Joanne Graves Wednesday 19 September, 12pm to 1pm Whare Wānanga, L2, Central City Library There is power in the arts to both influence and inspire. Creativity has often played a role in campaigns to make a difference; from poster art to the written word to music. As part of the Wāhine Take Action series at Central City Library, Sue Berman and Joanne Graves will explore ways in which creativity has played a part in the desire for change for women. The Special Collections curatorial team will be on hand for tours of the feature exhibition in the Level 2 Gallery from 11am. Come early for an in-depth exploration of this fascinating exhibition which highlights the tools and tactics women have used to fight for their causes and support their communities. This HeritageTalk will be presented in the Whare Wānanga on level 2. Booking is recommended. Booking not essential, but if you wish to book, phone Research Central on 09 890 2412 or book online: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz_pages_event.aspx-3FEventId-3D3922&d=DwIF_w&c=kKqjBR9KKWaWpMhASkPbOg&r=-mWZZZeVf-T2XFKEtPE1g25Egq_c7AQAHDafyY9XXQQ&m=rI5vfTlj_D9zLmZlREPMJD1R0JblKG_Uk-XkSR-Af9s&s=p7URTpY4pweDp2quelCyXWv2QOmEOgRFIdtpCtYbQfo&e= --------------------------------------------------------- Are you interested in family and local history?

    1. [nz]Re: Abraham MCKENZIE born circa 1866-drowned 1894 Bluff
    2. Peter Dillon
    3. Sorry I got my wires crossed a bit. John MCKENZIE who married Eliza Jane ROLSTON was from Drumderg townland (not Derryoghill) which is close to Derryoghill townland where his cousin Samuel lived whom I mentioned. These MCKENZIE descend from four brothers; John, Samuel, Abraham and William MCKENZIE born either side of 1800 who reputedly were from Skye in Scotland. John & Sam settled at Derryoghill and Abraham & William settled at Drumderg. Abraham was the father of John who married Eliza Jane ROLSTON and John was the father of Samuel whose son James went to NZ. Abraham's will (died 1860) gives the other three as his brothers and also refers to items of furniture of his mother that came from Scotland. The four brothers all had sons called James and three had sons called Abraham, and three had sons called John, plus furher James, Abraham and John were generated. It aint hard to get confused with that lot!

    1. [nz]Abraham MCKENZIE born circa 1866-drowned 1894 Bluff
    2. Peter Dillon
    3. Hi Listers I've seen an online tree that has an Abraham MCKENZIE who drowned at Bluff in 1894 age 28 as a son of John MCKENZIE & Eliza Jane ROLSTON of Derryoghill townland in County Tyrone. The MCKENZIE tree is complicated and it would be easy to assign a person to a wrong family. In this case I think it is the wrong family for Abraham but how to prove it is the problem. I can't find an Ireland birth registration for him circa 1866 (there's one in 1868 but that's definitely for a different man) or an indication that he is a son of John & Eliza Ann. The tree gives a location for him at Oteramika in Southland from the NZ electoral rolls but that's actually for a different Abraham MCKENZIE, a bachelor who died in Southland in 1910 living near his married brother Robert also at Oteramika, they actually being brothers to John MCKENZIE who married Eliza Jane ROLSTON. I can't find a NZ birth registration circa 1866 either, so that he probably did arrive from overseas. There's heaps of A. MCKENZIE in shipping records unfortunately. I suppose the 1894 death registration would give me the parents of the man who drowned in 1894 but I'm doing a tree for a friend, not me, and am reluctant to spend dollars on a person unrelated to me and perhaps not even related to my friend, i.e. on what might be a wild goose chase based on someone's else's possibly incorrect tree. But the tree is otherwise pretty good, so I'm reluctant to dismiss the possibility out of hand. My friend descends from John MCKENZIE's cousin, Samuel MCKENZIE a farmer of Derryoghill who married Elizabeth MCCUTCHEON and then Elizabeth EMERSON and whose son James to the second marriage came to NZ with his own family in 1927 and lived up Tauranga way. What I have for Abraham who drowned in 1894 is this: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__paperspast.natlib.govt.nz_newspapers_ST18930802.2.17&d=DwIFaQ&c=kKqjBR9KKWaWpMhASkPbOg&r=-mWZZZeVf-T2XFKEtPE1g25Egq_c7AQAHDafyY9XXQQ&m=RVwOUZ2ZhfmJffcNX6iI1yNImRephCRwXHXx30hkKVg&s=5IrHE2d9zIgdXEviaDmsj3oHkHVSJ9sGyZbT_Ly0_3U&e= Southland Times, Issue 12661, 2 August 1893, p.2 District Court.
