New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Reasearching: Henry Mowbray Michael

Yes those are my great grandparents :)

My notes say that Ella Purdy Stuart was the third daughter of Henry William Stuart. Perhaps she is the same person as Ellen Wyatt Stuart/McDonald?  The unnamed child born 1872 is probably the infant female who died the same year, and anyway was not the third (known!) daughter.


Pam, you say that in your notes, Ella is the third daughter. Do you know where you came across that information? Also, here's me wondering how I can access Name Change records... Any ideas?

Are you saying that I can access images of files on Familysearch by visiting specific libraries in New Zealand?

 I do live close to a fantastic library in Auckland that has a history department.

Thanks for your help

Thank you,

Do you think perhaps the last name is Purdie? There is a Purdy middle name further down the track on my family tree.. It just.. doesn't look like Purdie to me. Would be interesting if it was Slovakian though! :D
