Hi again Fern
When Richard Astley drowned he left 2 sons and 3 daughters.
Richard was 10 and Sydney 4 weeks old
Daughters were Adelaide,(Addie), Constance(Margaret) ,and Alice
Emily died just after and Alice and Sydney were put in an orphanage.
Richard and Emily are buried together at Waikumete in Auckland , along with 3 of their other children.
Mary died 11 August 1889 aged 3 months,Annie died 16 November 1892 aged 14 weeks ,and Charles died 19 Nov 1892 also 14 weeks
Alice died in 1968. Sydney died 1958.
What I want to know is more about Sir Richard D'arcy Astley from England . He was their grandfather.
Do you have any other info on him.?
