Hi, I have just learnt that my HORNE family my have owned a Carriage Company in the Hastings, Napier areas. Does anyone have any idea what it could have been called and where it was? I was also told that it could have been one of the first Carriage Companies in the area. Any help would be grateful. TIA Suzette Horne Henrici Descendants

I would suggest you check the Wies Post Office directories for the period who not only list firms but also include advertisements.

Hi Suzette This date seems really early? If it is correct it would definitely be drawn by horses as there would only have been tracks at this time. Any christian names or initials here? Elaine
