Thanks for your help. I wondered if this was our lot & yes it fits with information I received recently from my mother. This is so exciting. Wonder if you could find the origins of the Carr family that Rebecca is descended from. My grandmother Rebecca Elizabeth Foote's mother was born in Illusgillon Ireland.Her name was Rebecca Elizabeth Carr.Who was her father & how did they arrive in Dunedin?
