1966 Christmas card
« on: Monday 07 January 08 15:52 GMT (UK) »
Can anybody help me identify this family in Auckland ?
I've just found this among some of my grandfathers stuff, but not sure who the senders are.
His parents were Aaron and Emily Peel but they both would have been 92 in this year, so im guessing its not them.
Might be cousins or something .
Any help appreciated,
Peely.

can i assume your grandfather is A Peel of  Brambles farm ?

and that his parents lived in NZ  ?

the way the return address is written normally means its

Mr A E Peel, as in Anthony Edward Peel.

and his wife would be Mrs Anthony Edward Peel, if you get my line of thought.

I will check the Electoral roll this arvo, about 3 am your time.  Smiley

the house still exists, but no Peels living in it.

Hi Peely and Mk2

There's an Albert Edward Peel buried in Waikumete in 2004 aged 75. Wouldn't be the grandfather though, but might be brother or cuzy?

Just found the deaths of my great grand parents Aaron and Emily, so i can rule them out.
I think he must have had a brother or cousin in NZ.
Arthur or Albert Edward was a popular name in the Peel family, if this helps Huh

Thanks Zephyr, You are a star   Cool Cool Cool

Ihave just found the marriage in Middlesbrough, England.

Albert E Peel  = Rita Stephenson 1956.

Albert was born in Middlesbrough 1929.

Could you do me another favour and try to find if he died in NZ as i dont know how to search the NZ B.M.Ds.

Thank you both very much for helping me clear this up,

Peely.

Yes,

I believe Albert Edward Peel in Waikumete is the same.

He should be born about same time as your grand-dad.

abt 1930s  ?

No sites for MIs,    Sad
