Rounding up ancestors can be hard work!!


Margaret Stewart Jenkins MCGREGOR ex Scotland
« on: Monday 12 May 08 07:35 BST (UK) »


Hello all... Wink

I cannot find a burial for the above ancestor.   Margaret was born in Scotland, abt 1859  moved to Christchurch with her parents Anne and Peter Jenkins along with other siblings,  married Abishai Farrow in Christchurch 1879.   After having three children,  Margaret died 8 March 1884.

I am lead to believe she is buried in Addington Cemetery,  however her name doesn't appear....also nothing at Archives.   

Any bright ideas or websites which may help,  would be welcomed.

Hi again Keeweegal!

I can't see her on the ChCh cemetery database either. I'll try and get back to the library (Thursday - day off  Grin) and see if there is a card for her burial in the church register index.

Still thinking about your Herrons too! Smiley

If you do an advanced search on the ChCh burial database, you can enter a block and plot number and see if anyone is buried in the same plot.  Smiley

Hi All

Mmmm  .... I tried that  - no luck   Sad

[Also tried lots of spelling variations for FARROW ...  the maiden name ... and even a search to pick up on "Jenkins" as a middle name ].    Grrrrr  ... !!

Worth someone else having a look though.     Smiley

Good luck.

Hello again,

I found a card for Margaret's burial in the church register index. She was buried 11 March in the Barbadoes Street Cemetery. That explains why she doesn't appear on the database - they have very few burials from that cemetery.
