Possible New Resource re Scottish Immigration to NZ!
« on: Wednesday 04 April 18 09:30 BST (UK) »
I came across this tonight when poking around in Te Ara!  I thought that Spades might like to add it  to the NZ Resource boards. It looks pretty comprehensive!! (But I still couldn't find my Early Settler ??? -) oh well, ho hum, talk about a dog without a bone??  ;D ;D 👎👎

I hope people might find it helpful with their Early Scottish NZ families!

Cheers and Guid Luck tae Ye!! 👍👍

 ???  That's odd Minnihha, I just tried my electric Scotland link again, and it was fine!  Came up no problem.

When I clicked on your link, it came up with a Te Ara biography with the name of Ayson, but no sign of any warning at all

I'm just as puzzled as you are 😀 Maybe the warning was aimed at your computer details.  I really don't know. Crazy stuff.

Yes, same problem as Minnie, the link works fine, but when you click on something to look at, that is when the message comes up.

JB, have you tried clicking on one of the searches, to see what you get?

Ok, just had another play around,  if you click on the blue box at the top, it opens fine,  on any of those links in white, but it is when you click on Biographies of Scots in NZ, is when the message appears.

Hi KHP,

Yes got that, but how do I get to "Biographies of Scots in New Zealand" as this is not listed in the blue box at the top. Or is it just me having a senior moment, again.......... ::)

The men in white coats don't need to come for you  :D   Click on JB's link and it should be staring at you, with the first name "Addison, Agnes" and you will see a kiwi.

I wonder if it has something to do with the browser we use, I get this message.
