Hi group.
I am wanting to locate descendants of Patrick Brady and Emma Phillips.
Children were
1. William Glen Brady b. 1903 d. 1986 married Myrtle Amelia Fountain [My great Aunt] No children from this marriage.
2. Alma Brady b. 1904 d. 1980 Alma married George Sylvester Hogan in 1925
3. Jack Brady b 1912 d, 1980 Jack I think married Gwyneth Constance LITT 1949 OR Beth Pepper in 1937 or both.
Wish to make contact with any descendants

Hi Linda,
You might be best to search for their death notices in newspapers to find out if they had children

Many thanks I know all about William and Myrtle my great uncle and great Aunty , Hoping to find family for Alma and Jack.
Many thanks for all you help. Thought on the off chance someone may know of the children of both brother and sister,
Linda
PS I posted the photo of my Uncle Glen [William]

As previously suggested, the funeral directors and/or newspaper death notices would be your best bet for finding details of the next generation......

Hello,

Hello Linda ... just to confirm that the above ^ divorce record does NOT apply to the Jack BRADY you are seeking. [This Jack was some years younger and lived in Auckland.]
* Yours is the electrician who lived (mostly) at Hamilton with his wife Beth ... and as already mentioned is buried at Hamilton Park cemetery.
I'd earlier looked at electoral rolls, and Jack and Beth BRADY appear to have had a daughter (as per 1963 Waikato roll). She is at her parents address in the next e/roll under her 1st married name. It would seem that she had a second marriage several years later ? I cannot see a death or burial record for her (or her husband) so it is assumed she is still living.

Hello from the Waikato.
Check out these cemetery listings to see if you feel any family is a starter, and if so PM me with the details and I can make enquiries [approach people] on your behalf.

LITT is a Taupiri based surname.
http://www.hamilton.govt.nz/our-services/do-it-online/cemetery-search/Pages/default.aspx
There are several PHILLIPS clans in Hamilton.
All live within 20 km from my home.
Alan.
PS PELLOWS the funeral directors are still in business and could be worth emailing to see if they are able to assist. Some companies are more concerned about today's privacy laws than others, so tread carefully.

3. Jack Brady b 1912 d, 1980 Jack I think married Gwyneth Constance LITT 1949 OR Beth Pepper in 1937 or both.

Just re-confirming that the Jack BRADY being sought, did NOT marry Gwyneth Constance LITT.

Thanks Lu did not take that on board.
The Taupiri LITT clan are well known through several generations, in the transport industry and as keen rugby players.

Hello again Linda
On the 1954 electoral roll for Rangitikei, a Glen Barry HOGAN - occupation, carpenter, is at the same address > Wellington Road, Marton > as Alma and George S. HOGAN. I think it's safe to say that he is probably their son.
Glen Barry HOGAN died aged 80 years, in 2012 and is buried at Wanganui.

As suggested earlier, you may like to contact the Funeral Director, to obtain further information on next-of-kin for Glen Barry HOGAN.
Here is a link to the FD > Dempsey and Forrest of Wanganui (Whanganui).

Glen Barry HOGAN had married in the mid 1950's to Patricia Anastacia KENNY. She died in October 1991 and is buried with her husband at Wanganui,
Looking at electoral rolls, it seems they may have had as many as 4 children (or 3 and a dau-in-law ??).
~ Lu

Gosh you people are all wonderful
I had concluded the Jack marrying Gwyneth was not my Jack
I do have a personal reason to try to contact this family.
It will answer a lot of questions
Thank you every one I did look at electoral rolls but will confess not everyone.
I will start on the microfiche when our rooms open [finding births in the Waikato area] Finding Jack and Beth s children plus Alma and Georges
Thanks Linda

Hi Linda
Just to save trawling through the microfiche, ::) ... I would really recommend that you try to obtain info from the Funeral Director who took care of Glen Barry HOGAN (2012). (See link in my earlier post @ Reply # 15).
It was of course just five years ago, so they may be able to provide you with a copy of his death notice which would give the most up-to-date information on his immediate family.
If you want to send me a personal message (PM), I can give you the names of the possible children I found earlier. [Not able to post those details here in this thread as it breaches RootsChat's policy on naming possibly-living persons. ]

Linda ... It's very probable that Alma and George Sylvester HOGAN had other children, however I was only able to find one "possible" (Glen Barry), who was residing with them.
And here too are the records > from "Cremations at Wanganui" (@ ancestry.com) > for Alma and George S. HOGAN.
I can't see these cremation records on the Wanganui (Whanganui) Cemetery website.
HOGAN - George Sylvester - 372 Wellington road, Marton - married - 67 years - died 19 May 1966 - scat. (abbrev. for "ashes scattered" ? ) :
HOGAN - Alma - 372 Wellington Road, Marton - widow - 75 years - d. 3 June 1980 - Ashes to FD. :

Further to request from Lindybnz - some information - re: probable HOGAN and BRADY children - has been sent via PM.
