[poobear]

Looking for Agnes Shaw who married John Baillie in NZ and had the following chilren:

Helen Cherry Baillie married Arthur Browne.

Annie Rankin Baillie married George Parr

James Shaw Baillie married Annie McFarlane.

Robert Crawford Baillie married Elizabeth Corway.

Agnes Neil Baillie married Percy Browne.

Kate Kerr Baillie married Denis Campbell.

John Rankin Baillie twin (killed in War)

David Shaw Baillie twin (Killed in War)

All lived in the Auckland area when younger.

Keen to hear from anyone researching or knows information on this family.

Cheers Donna

Hi Donna,

The death details for one of the twins notes that Agnes had married again so no wonder you may have had trouble finding her.

Name: BAILLIE, DAVID SHAW
Initials: D S
Nationality: New Zealand
Rank: Private
Regiment/Service: Auckland Regiment, N.Z.E.F.
Unit Text: 15th (North Auckland) Coy.
Age: 21
Date of Death: 03/05/1915
Service No: 12/500
Additional information: Son of Agnes Clarke (formerly Baillie), of Argyle St., Avondale, Auckland, and the late John Rankin Baillie.
Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead
Grave/Memorial Reference: 72.
Memorial: LONE PINE MEMORIAL

But not noted on the other twin's death details:

Name: BAILLIE, JOHN RANKIN
Initials: J R
Nationality: New Zealand
Rank: Private
Regiment/Service: Auckland Regiment, N.Z.E.F.
Unit Text: 1st Bn.
Age: 22
Date of Death: 03/07/1916

Additional information: Son of John and Agnes Baillie, of Avondale, Auckland, New Zealand.

So you will be looking for Agnes Clarke instead of Agnes Baillie...unless she married after that again.  Still looking for the rest although they may be in parts of Auckland that aren't online in terms of cemeteries.

Hi Mk2_Zephyr,

Thank you for your reply,  I am sorry if I have upset or affended you with my request.  This is the only information that I know about this family.  I thought the idea of this web site was to make posts of who you are researching in the hope that others may be researching the same family or know information on them.  It certainly wasnt meant to be a "shout out" just hoping someone might know something of this family

Cheers Donna

Hi Donna,

I've been looking in the cemeteries but I can only find one Agnes Clarke and her middle name is noted as Cadman.  Can't tell if she is yours.  Loads may be buried at Waikumete cemetery which of course doesn't have their records online (wah!). 

Looking...looking...

Cheers

But Agnes Shaw and John Baillie did marry in 1881.

Hi bunny,

Thanks for the information.  I have also been trying to find out where Agnes Baillie (then Clark) parents are  burried.  They were James Shaw died 15th Oct 1883 and Helen Shaw nee Cherrie died ?.  It doesnt state which cemetery that James is burried on his death certificate.    A bit of a mystery as to where they are burried.

Thanks again

Cheers Donna

No offence at all,   shout outs are good     

what I meant was, what else do you know ?

where did all the marriages come from .....


Have to say this (NZ) web page is a slighty different model than most.

Very helpful people, who definitely go the extra mile and all I'm trying to do is save a couple of bus trips.
