Barratt and Crespin families New Zealand
« on: Saturday 28 June 14 18:41 BST (UK) »
Have a small record book that has handwritten info on births, deaths, travels of these families. Christchurch, Wellington, NY, England are most of locations mentioned. Names include C.H. Barratt, Edgar Crespin, Phyllis Barratt, Florence Crespin are some names mentioned.  A few newspaper articles are glued on pages.
Anyone interested in these families?

The Barratts & Crespins aren't on my tree, but I found other trees that Edgar, Florence Crespin and C.H. Barratt are on.   (The C.H. in C.H. Barratt stands for Clarence Henry Barratt)

      Edgar & Florence Crespin were brother & sister.     Edgar was born at Ash, Surrey in 1864 & Florence was born at Bridgewater on 3 Feb 1869.     (Florence died in Wellington 8 Dec 1958)

      Florence married Clarence Henry Barratt,(above) who was born 1870 at Marlborough, NZ.
Florence & Clarence have descendants in NZ from a child they had. 

      .......Edgar Crespin born 12 Apr 1864, Ash, Surrey died at Christchurch on 26 Sep 1926.

      If you go to Search > Search All Records on Ancestry, and type in Edgar Crespin....    Birth: 1864 Ash, Surrey.   Died: Christchurch, NZ 1926.     Gender: Male.     Then click Search.     Then, on the list that comes up on the left of the page, click Family Trees.     These are public trees.    On the list that comes up, select the Shapcott - Barratt Family Tree.     

      On it, there is a photo of Florence Crespin (born 1869), and other photos too.

              Hope this information interests you,
