James Robert Dodds- Obituary
« on: Sunday 20 July 14 14:28 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

Can anyone help me in finding an obituary for my ancestor, James Robert Dodds who died in 1946 in Invercargill, New Zealand. He had emigrated from Scotland in 1910 with wife (Christina and daughters Isabella and Jane), sadly though Christina later died in 1930.n 1933 he remarried a woman called Marion Christina Clearwater in 1933.

Thanks!

Darren

Hi Alex,

That would be great thank you so much! In past experience I have found that from death notices you sometimes find other relatives who you never thought you had before, so that would be most helpful.

Thanks again!

Darren
