Hello Bunny
 I am blown away by all the info you emailed - I didn't know there were so many of them! I knew or assumed there was a maori connection because of my Uncle Hitch's (Herbert Waiwera Hitchon) second name. I think a lot of the people of the list are his siblings. He lived in Tauranga, and was a Fisherman.
Thank you so much for all this.
I am also a kiwi (living in Oz, but very definately a kiwi. I was born in Rotorua.

Hello Heather,
Yes I have the 18411 and 1851  census, but I am stuck because I can't go backwards from there to get information - I am a member of Ancestry UK, but that's not much use really before registration in 1837 - hoping to find some emigration info on the NZ and Australian websites. And will follow up his siblings to see where they went.
Thanks for replying

Worcestershire Lookup Requests / HITCHON b 1833 Kidderminster

Hello,
I am new to this board so please excuse errors.

I am looking for family of Henry Horton Hitchon b 12 April1833, Kidderminster, died 28 Oct 1872 Adams Flat, Otago, NZ. He married Jane Bennett b 1830 Warsop, Notts and d 1916 Tokomairiro, South Island, NZ. I think they first emigrated to Queensland, Australia, as their son Manley Henry Hitchon was b 03 April 1862, Tara, Queensland. Manley married Ann Margaret unknown, I think in NZ, and they had 8 children, one of whom was my uncle, Herbert Hitchon, b 04 May 1894, Waiwera, NZ.
Would love to find someone else who is researching or knows something of this family.
Regards
