Hi,
I am researching my great grandfather, Philip BOYD, who was born in Wollongong on 11 November 1842 and was baptized in St Xavier?s Catholic Church on 23 November 1842.
He came over to New Zealand as a young man in 1861.
There is evidence that he was quite well educated, presumably in a Wollongong Catholic School, in the late 1840s/early 1850s.
I would greatly appreciate any help in finding any records of his school days.

Hi,

My great grandmother, Maria Frances Ogilvie, nee Freeman, married an Albert John Brown in Hokitika, New Zealand in 1894, three years after she was widowed. He died in Hokitika in 1922. I would like to know more about him.
Can anyone please help?

Hi,
I have information on Hannah Eliza Fineletter, nee Howard having five children born to her and John James Fineletter in Ballarat, Victoria in the 1850s. Three of the five died young. Hannah Eliza Fineletter, Her daughter Sarah Ann Fineletter and perhaps her son, William Thomas Fineletter, emigrated to New Zealand in the late sixties. Hannah Eliza and Sarah Ann were in Hokitika round 1870.
I would appreciate any information on their emigration to New Zealand, and their early years here.

Hi,
A remarkable family bible has fallen into my hand, given by someone who thought the OGILVIES listed might be connected to myself. They are not. I hope to be able to forward the bible on to a family historian who is researching some of the people listed.The bible was presented to an Ogilvie in 1850 but contains records of marriages, births and deaths such as in the sample below.
James Ogilvie married Isabella Banks 1850 Invary (?)

Hi,
James STOOP and Hannah FINELETTER came to the Otago goldfields from the Victorian goldfields in the early 1860s. I suspect they came together and may even have come as Mr and Mrs Stoop. Hannah would have had one child, Sarah Ann, born 1858, with her and possibly another, William Thomas, born1854.
Iwould be grateful for any help on their arrival or time in Otago before they moved on to the Westlanf field in the late 1860s.
Regards,
