looking for McGUORGUODALE - anywhere
Private John Cooper went to war on the 17th April 1915.
He was with the Otago Infantry Battalion 4th Reinforcements.
He left Wellington New Zealand for Gallipoli where he was killed in action on 27th September 1915
As is next of kin he had put: Mrs M. Cooper (mother) care of
M.A. McGuorguodale, Waikaka Valley, Otago, New Zealand
ALSO: Son of the late Jesse & Mary Ann Cooper of Waikuahuna Gorge
I cannot find one person of the name McGuorguodale anywhere in New Zealand - or for that matter, anywhere in the world - so the spelling may be wrong.
Do you know anyone in New Zealand with that name?
Do you know how it should have been spelt?

Mr WACKROW, Mayor of Taumarunui, New Zealand 1911
I have come across a number of references of a Mr Wackrow being the Mayor of Taumarunui, King Country New Zealand in 1911 - have also seen "the Mayoress, Mrs Wackrow, of Taumarunui 1913" (- as a time gauge)
I cannot verify this as any list of Mayors of Taumarunui seem to start in about 1915

- Honours, B.A. London University.
- Assistant Master in the Wanganui Collegiate School
- Came from England to Wanganui as a master in May 1914, and was appointed tutor of Hadfield House in succession to Mr Hodges. In the short space of two terms he established himself firmly in the life and affections of the school. He at once interested himself in the Cadet Corps and the workshop, was captain of No.6 Coy., and given a comission in the N.Z. Territorials. He planned and supervised the building of the cricket shed, which in its unpretentious usefulness stands as a symbol of his own character. In the class-room, he inspired as well as taught, out of it his kindliness and sincerity earned one of those whose presence enriches the community they serve, and it was with sense of vital loss that we heard that he would not return to us again. He accompanied the 4th Reinforcements, and spent only four days in Egypt before sailing for Gallipoli. He died from wounds received at Chunuk Bair on the morning of August 8th, his company commander, a distinguished old boy of the school, referring to him a "a very gallant soldier who had shown himself just what an officer ought to be.
Thankyou to Richard Bourne of the Wanganui Collegiate School Museum for this information.
