New Zealand Completed Requests / Death/burial details for Edmond ANDRAHAN
« on: Monday 22 April 24 06:10 BST (UK)  »
Private Edmond ANDRAHAN, 43rd Monmouthshire Light Infantry No 2775 came to NZ on the ship Lady Jocelyn which arrived in Auckland ex Calcutta on 10 December 1863.

He fought at the Battle of Gate Pa [29 April 1864] and the Battle of Te Ranga [21 June 1864], Tauranga.

The book Discharged in NZ by Hugh and Lyn Hughes records that he was born in Glynn, Limerick and was discharged 24 March 1866 in OT [Otago?]

I am looking for death and burial details.

I have searched The Wilson Collection, NZ Ancestry Search Helper, The Collections - Archives NZ, electoral roll for Dunedin 1866-67, Familysearch, Ancestry and Paperspast.  Also checked the Dunedin City Council cemetery records online.

Grateful for any assistance.

Many thanks Forfarian for this information which is much appreciated.

Thank you to all who have read and replied to my posting.

I will now close this posting while I work with this information to see if there is any connection to "my" Hunter family.

Re reply #14
Since found on Familysearch as family tree for Jane AULD which indicates that Jane married on 15 July 1843 at Ayr a Francis MCCALL.  Francis was b 1825 and died 1875.

Jane AULD and Hugh Hunter had a son Robert Hunter 1847. 

Hugh Hunter was born 1817 Kilwinning - no parents stated.

I have contacted account holder in Canada, fingers crossed he responds!

Many thanks Neale1961, MonicaL and Forfarian for your postings.  The information is very interesting and helpful.

It is likely that the Mother of Robert A Hunter (snr) is Jean/Jane Auld.

There are a couple of possibilities for his father - is there one more likely - to clarify?

Thanks

MonicaL, many thanks for your posting which is much appreciated.  Also your advice
Informant likely to be son John Hunter as I found John and his Mother Elizabeth in the 1930 US census in the same household.

I have previously gone down a few rabbit holes re names and dates.

thanks again

Thanks Neale1961 for your postings.
I have not been able to see any DNA connections to the people you mention but will keep checking.  There are two people with Hunter connections - one in NZ and I have been in contact with him and the other in the US.  Message sent to him but no response so far
Thanks also mckha489 for your postings.
Will take a little time to take a look at the info as found on Familysearch other "Robert A Hunter" in Detroit around similar time frame so need to eliminate these.
Will look to concentrate on Robert A Hunter snr .
Thanks again
