I think you will have to upgrade to the 2019 version to establish the link with Ancestry.

 :)

Think you are right.  I have just upgraded to 2019 from 2017 and noticed the sync feature from FTM to Ancestry on it.

Australia / Re: Junior Red Cross in 1950s at School
« on: Friday 06 January 23 00:54 GMT (UK)  »
I received a Certificate verifying I attended a course of lectures and demonstrations in Primary School Health for The New Zealand Red Cross Society (Inc) Junior Red Cross and a Junior Red Cross Membership Card with the Pledge inside.  This would be mid 1960's.

From memory this was just a normal lesson in class, demonstrating on a dummy for mouth to mouth,  which I think was called the Kiss of Life, bandaging etc.

So it would have been our normal school day wear.

Happy New Year back to you.

1866 Otago Nominal Roll - Blueskin/Port Chalmers
1867 Otago Nominal Roll - Blueskin/North Harbor
1869 Otago Nominal Roll - Blueskin/North Harbor

Spelling as Malcolm McNicoll

Public Works Dept Service Registers (Archives) - spelling Malcolm McNicol.

Wonder what the Hocken Library hold?

Aren't marriage indexes only available up to 1956 on CD? 

Debra  :D

Correct, but to search on line you can search up to 5 Jan 1943, as at todays date typing this.

I recall that there was a lookup facility somewhere (I think you needed to write in). Possibly the Auckland branch of the NZ Society of Genealogists?

Can anyone help with this?

Spades

Think it was the North Shore Branch.

I have the year of their marriage 1889 New Zealand.... I wonder if there is a Newspaper site similar to trove in Australia which may give the day and place...

Cheran :-\

Hello,

By narrowing the months down, I got the 29th Oct 1889 for the date of marriage.   The link below explains how you can narrow dates/months to get the date you want.  Unfortunately, I don't know the place, but if you purchase the Marriage Printout, it will be on there.

Have a play yourself and see, you can double check my findings.

At the "findagrave" website, there is a record for Christina Ann Eagleson (submitted by a volunteer "researcher") which gives her burial place as "Pye's Pa Memorial Park", Tauranga.??

   ~  Lu                                           


At Pye's Pa.

Edited:  Don't know about the picture of grave, I think it says 2nd May 1984, the age is right, but known as Annie on grave??
