Hi Penne Don't know if you've had a reply to this. I looked at the original on PapersPast and yes some of the relevant words are hard to read. Yes, the 'ask a librarian' service should be able to look this up for you. I can't see why not. You're asking for clarification of one of the sources they hold.

Can anyone tell me please if hard copy newspapers are available to be checked for missing words in death/memoriam notices? Would the "ask the librarian" service do it?. In the digitised newspaper below, two words are missing from Jessie Anne Bassetts notice, and neither word seems to fit in with family names. cheers penne Auckland Star, Volume XLIII, Issue 264, 4 November 1912 --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

You'll find the "AtoJs" at http://atojs.natlib.govt.nz/ The "proper" (but less commonly used) name is the Appendix to the Journals of the House of Representatives.

Penne, Try the As to Js online. Loads of correspondence ( 50 pgs) relating to the location and maintenance of emigrants into Auckland 1863. Probably worth a read. Haven't checked out any other years.

This is a general information blurb (apologies if it is outside criteria) on my recent visit to Auckland Archives and doing a casual hunt for any family strays, using a couple of references from Police gazettes etc.Looking for any reference to an iilegit male I ordered a record relating to schools, I was astonished to receive a neatly and alphabetically bound school roll for all? of the schools in the upper north Island, how I wish Wellington had the same, when I was down there earlier this year. Each page was divided into classes. I found all the children named, in my late MILs family, orphaned in the flue epidemic, days at school each year, and marks in the main subjects for that year. I had thought the youngest child born two days before his mother died had been reared by his grandmother, but no, there he was, also in the orphanage. The school of interest operated on the Orphanage premises in Papatoetoe, later changing it's name and becoming public. Might be a huge help for anyone seeking lost children. Unfortunately as I ordered directly from the reference,I do not know it, but after the hols if anyone is interested, I can ask what the reference was. cheers penne --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Hi all, apologies for any cross posting, Looking to make contact with anyone else researching family/ancestors who were in care of the Church of England St Saviour's Home, sometimes called Orphanage, in Timaru Canterbury New Zealand. Divided into separate Boys and Girls homes. My father and his three brothers were put there from their family home in Rakaia, Canterbury NZ, by their father following their mother's death. In particular I have researched the Rector who was sentenced to six years hard labour for sexual offences against the boys as this man was made their legal guardian because their father had abandoned them. His offences were particularly horrendous when one considers he was given legal charge of their lives and probably lots of other vulnerable children too. Thank goodness my 15 month old Aunt, my Father's and his brother's baby sister was brought up by a paternal Aunt and her husband as he was also going to put her in there too. When I asked the Christchurch Diocese Archivist for my father and his brother's records (all of whom have now passed away) of their years there I was told there were not any, that she would need the Bishops permission to give any out and in fact their files were empty. I am interested in anyone else's experience of attempting to get records. Through the Canterbury Genealogical transcripts, I was able to obtain their School Records, just dates of admission and discharge, nothing else. Below is an article that gives a potted history of the institution. > http://www.compassion.org.nz/news/2003.php?subaction=showfull&id=1054011941&archive=&start_from=&ucat=6& > The 55-bed home was originally built in 1917 by the Anglican Guild. > The move to build it by the Christchurch-basedbody was in response > to the Government’s decree that no boy over the age of eight should > be housed with a girl. > The guild already ran an orphanage in Shirley, Christchurch, which > after Timaru opened in September, 1917, was used exclusively for > girls. > Less than a year after opening it was commandeered by the Government > and used as a hospital and rehabilitation centre for returned > servicemen from the First World War. > The boys were moved to two houses leased by the guild in Marston Road. > The building was returned to the Anglican Church in 1921 and > converted back into an orphanage. It was called St Saviours, but was > also known as the Timaru Boys Orphanage. > The Timaru Herald reported in March 1929 the orphanage had “cared > for 250 boys including 22 helpless babies”. > Controversy hit the orphanage in 1932 when the first rector resigned > and was prosecuted for abusing the boys in his care. > He was replaced by Sidney Razell-Wood who spent 16 years in charge.

A recent find in my Taylor quest, namely my gg Ellen Eliza Bassett nee Taylors mother Eliza may have been an Eliza Shotter. I am looking for any family of George William Shotter who died 1995 and was cremated on the North Shore Auckland . I understand he had produced an extensive family tree, and this could be most useful in confirming who his Eliza married. I have a copy of a marriage in 1821, but to date, although much matches,another source could be brilliant. I have been told the LDS have this tree in their holdings, but their branch here in Hawkes Bay is far from active. cheers penne
