Any assitance would be gratefully appreciated as it has been 14 long years and they are proving elusive.Their children were William,John,Mary,Ellen,Michael,Patrick, Margaret and Johanne. My ggrannie and two of her sisters came to New Zealand in the early 1880's. Johanna I believe stayed in Ireland. I have heard that there were 3 Caples brothers who were shipwrecked in the 1500's and were from Wales??? Does this ring any bells with anyone. I am happy to help people with queries re New Zealand Thanks Anne
