Hi, trying to find possible crew or immigration details/dates from England to NZ for Arthur Robert Edwards B Sept 1891 W/Ham (Stratford ?). Parents Robert William Edwards and Matilda (Perrett).
Maybe he just jumped ship and walked slap bang into onset of WWI whilst in NZ. He signed Attestation 10th Aug 1914 in Wellington NZ, Service No. 3/16 occupation City Council Wgtn. Discharge papers give occupation as SAILOR/Tram driver (NZ). He eventually married and then settled in Melbourne Australia working again as a Tram driver. Hope you have better luck than me.
Cheers
Henzy
