DEWING New Plymouth
« on: Sunday 08 June 08 09:52 BST (UK) »

Hi There  Smiley

This my first foray onto the NZ board!

I'm looking for information on Edward Bertram Maurice Dewing who was born in Horsham Sussex 24 Oct 1902 (par Maurice Dewing & Amy Edith Wallis) and was buried in the Awanui Cemetery in New Plymouth 29 Aug 1972. 

Leonie Flemming Dewing (age 69) was buried alongside him on 27 Sept 2001.  Leonie Flemming Segol b1931 Narrabri NSW married Edward Bertram Dewing in Sydney in 1952, but its not clear whether Leonie is the wife or daughter-in-law of the chap buried in New Plymouth.  She could be his wife, although 50  & 21 is a fair old age gap (mind you my great aunt was 26 when she married her 52 yo husband).  But if so, was there an earlier marriage and were there any children?

I've found reference to Amy and Bertram Dewing's involvement with the Ba'hai faith in NZ but have yet to find when they came to NZ and whether father Maurice came too?

Any help appreciated

Cheers Jane

Thanks Brionne, that looks like them!  Kiss  I was looking for them in Auckland so no wonder I didn't have any luck  Roll Eyes

I've just found that Maurice Dewing died in Suffolk in 1917 so no need to look any further for him.

Cheers, Jane
