Hi KHP,

The age and year of birth would appear to be at odds with that found in the BDM index and obituary?

Minniehaha.

Probably a transcription error.

Hi Gay,

Just to double check.........

Have you had a look at the obituary which gives the names of his daughters? (See my post above.) Do we have the correct family?

Hi there,

That is the correct family - the first born  Mary Jane is my husbands grandmother.

I knew they had a big family and perhaps William was staying with family in Palmerston North when he died as he would have been an elderly man and by himself.

I havent looked at the obituary - is it in Papers Past.?

In another obituary, to be found in the 'Evening Post' dated 6.8.1923, some of his immediate family are named...............

Again from the "Papers Past" website.

Minniehaha.

You will find that here

Hi
I looked on Papers past
Those obituaries cant be the right person as I met at least three of his daughters in 1965 at our
wedding  and they mention one son living in the notices in 1923.

Perhaps this is him arriving in 1848 or for elimination.

From the disc Discharged in New Zealand.

The name of the ship will need to be double checked


58th (RUTLANDSHIRE) REGIMENT


Regimental Number: 1044
Rank: CS (as at discharge) Colour Sergeant
Surname: Hobbs
First Name : William
Birthplace: Cerne
Trade (On Enlistment) : Butcher
Date of Enlistment : 21 January 1839
Place of Discharge: Auckland
Date of Discharge : 30 September 1848
Type of Discharge : $ = Discharged on Payment
Ship : PBBE


PB = PESTONJEE BOMANJEE and BE = BEE

It is the only one I can see for arriving here in 1848.
