Hi.
I don't have access to later death notices so not helpful to you.

Do you have the Will of Richard Henry Murphy?

There is a probate record on familysearch for him - free

Also at NZ Archives @ archway.archives.govt.nz
Title Years
MURPHY Richard Henry (R22978792) 1937 - 1937 
 

 
Additional archives description
Feilding - Bootmaker




Item ID Agency Series Accession Record group Box / Item Sep Record no. Part Alternative no. Record type
R22978792 AAOY 21078 W3298  452 /   0062/37   Text
 This would be a paying site.

You could try Thomas Griggs and Son the funeral director for Leslie Morris' death notice

I have found the Registrations for both deaths at NZ Births, Deaths Marriages.
Richard Murphy 1937/24626 and Annie Ada Murphy 1948/19207.

Could not find death notices in Papers Past.

Hi Rod,
Have you had any luck with your query?
If you try the local Library in NZ they may be able to help.
