Trish - fascinating that your G/G Grandfather did a similar thing to George Smith and fancy ending up in New Zealand. My stepson and his partner live near Kaikohe so next time we visit, I must have a look at the Pioneer village. Many thanks for all the postings - I started off earlier with just a name but with all the kind assistance offered, I really have been able to "flesh out" the family.
Sandra - thanks for the obituary references which really provide the sort of detail you cannot ascertain through a census listing or a birth/marriage/death certificate - fascinating reading. Also the census and find a grave references. I can see I will be busy over the weekend printing these off and adding them to my family file.
Everyone's kind assistance is most appreciated.
