Hi, I would like to hear from anyone researching these Jones & Beech familes (originally Welsh farmers) who came over to NZ around the early 1900’s? My grandfather’s brother Robert Henry Jones (1887 – 1964) and his wife Catherine Beech, they farmed at Goodson Road, Hawera. Children: Ceridwen Elizabeth, Doris Elsie, Cecil Lloyd, Gladys Mary, Phillis Mabel, Irene May. Also connected were Thomas Alun Jones (c1875) SA then NZ. John Owen Jones who married Sarah Jones at Hawera Wesleyan Church 6/8/1910. Beech family of Katka-tamea and Vera Hey (nee Beech) well known musician.
I’m in the UK and trying to knit together the various connections.
