No Michelle,   haven't received any email from you direct.   Security must be very good on this site.     I wonder if posting an address would work.   Here goes.  My  address is  (*) If this works, you could post  me your email address.

Sorry to intervene but neither e-mails or addresses should be put on a public board in your own interest.

It might be better to personal message (PM) each other to exchange personal information. This can be done by clicking on the green scroll underneath a person's avatar/details on the left of the message.

Hi Michelle,
Can I ask about your interest in George Henry Ballantyne. He was my Great Grandfather & father of my grandmother Mary Ann. They lived in Wanaka Central Otago NZ. I would be keen to fill some gaps in my info

I presume your George Henry Ballantyne is the same one who came out to NZ in 1860.  His mother was Jessie Douglas who died as they came up the harbour into Dunedin, leaving father, John Douglas FRANCIS Ballantyne a widow for the second time with 9 children.    I cannot tell you much about what happened to George after they arrived in NZ.  Michelle would know more about that branch of the family, but I can fill you in on the family before they came to NZ, if that is of interest to you.  If you would like to know more on the earlier history of the family, please reply on this website and I will  provide the details. 
Regards, Ngaio

Hi Michelle & Ngaio,
Sorry about the delay in replying. I am just working out how to use this site and also reading some of the previous discussion.
Yes I believe this is the same George Henry Ballantyne. I would be very interested in the earlier family history!
I have his parents as Francis Ballantyne and Janet Douglas. (Janet = Jessie? I did not know the story of her death)
In NZ he married Mary Ellen Norman and they had 7 Children :- Mary Ann; William Henry; Bertram Francis; Arthur Norman; Emily Fanny; Frederick George and Grace Helen. Mary Ann is my grandmother. She married Frederick Henry Ernest Collings on 14 July 1909 in Wanaka (then known as Pembroke) Central Otago NZ. (I have quite a lot of NZ family info but no Scotland)
Michelle - can you tell me which of George Henry's children you are descended from?
Regards
Tanekaha
Sorry Ngaio - I see now you are connected through Mary Ann - John Douglas Francis Ballantyne's daughter with his first wife Margaret Archibald

Hi Tanekaha,

My link to  George Ballantyne is as follows,  his son Arthur who married Mary Eleanor Jewiss, their daughter Hazel who married Daniel David Miller Andrews then divorced and moved to Australia, her daughter Pamela , Michelle.

I have a little info on your line from that booklet that was produced in the 80's about the Normans. (do you know of this book).

I would love to find out more about the Ballantynes, and associated families.

Michelle
