HI there mahananne and Lisa.

I have sent you a personal message mahananne, keen to swap information with you .

Lisa I have been meaning to contact you again and let you know that I travelled to Ireland last year and went to the town that the Mahan and Codys lived and even meet a relative through the Cody line.

Cheers Donna

Thanks everyone for the amazing quick contact, I will take a couple of hours and have a look through the info you have sent me and see if I can add any gap fillers.
This side of the family, is related through Arthur Treasure Mahan (called Peter) who was born in 1923, the family history on this side was lost as our Arthur's father also Arthur died within a few weeks of him being born. This Arthur was a son of Robert Mahan. Peter was an only child and went as a baby overseas to South Africa and England before returning to NZ. Peter had 4 children, 3 that lived.
If anyone has any more knowledge of Arthur that died in 1923, I would appreciate it we have his army number WW1 23/817 - Army (R10927657)
Thanks Anne
