Yes, Owaka is indeed a town within the Catlins area which straddles the border between Otago and Southland where it meets the southern coast.

Since 1860 until the 2016 cut off at NZ BDM, there have been no registrations of births, deaths or marriages for the name of Lorraway.

There is however, one entry in the NZ White pages for this name....

Thank you.  Both of these replies are definitely my family.  The death notice doesn't seem to be John as his middle name was Charles.  The name is a difficult one being French.
Thank you so much.
Toni

The only information I have about the family arriving in NZ are:
1st:  I have the death certificate of John Charles Jnr and George.  Both say they were born in Waimate NZ. I have also found a shipping record that says they arrived in Lyttleton on the ship 3 Apelles 6 May 1874.  I found this on a Jersey Wiki and in a Southern NZ newspaper.  Te next thing I know they are living in Mt Morgan QLD Australia but no mention of John Charles Senior.  Just Mary Jane, the boys and Alice so John Charles has disappeared.
Thanks
Toni
