FATT of the Hokianga (completed)
« on: Thursday 31 March 11 02:02 BST (UK) »
Calling all super sleuths        ;D   ;D

James FATT had three sons, James ( died WW1), Stephen and Sydney all born in the Hokianga, Northland NZ

This is what I have found:
James FATT Snr death certificates states, no parents, no county of birth or how long in NZ, no wives names    ??? or age of children.

James was a gum digger in 1893 / 1896 in RAKAWHAI, Bay of Island and in 1911 Labourer, OAKURA , Taranaki  died 1939 buried Kelvin Grove Cemetery.

Sydney FATT marriage certificate states no mother's name   ???
not bought his d.c yet. (

On BDM no birth's registered for these three FATT or any FATT / FAT

Have got birth dates from WW 1 files ( thanks Spades) also on Cenotaph data base ( nok).

So the question is who is the mother of James FATT'S children. I am guessing she was a Maori Lass .

Have looked on all my Disc ,
Okay over to you super sleuths.

Dellboy
Yes to everything

Janette
Waiting for a lady at GenesReunited to come back with the mother's details.
The FATT in Clevedon comes from Stephen's side.
Yes have death notice & death certificate for James Snr.

Cousin asking his cousin to look at Ancestry, if no answer will get back to Althea. As I do not James Snr parents name

Awaiting NZSG to send FATT researcher name & address.

My guess the Ancestry, GenesReunited & NZSG maybe  the same person.

Many thanks every one
