New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Dunedin Births.
« on: Tuesday 12 February 08 20:53 GMT (UK)  »
I have been trawling through the NZ.gov pages and have discovered that the name of John Morgan Lloyd Davies appears in the Dunedin probate and Letters of Administration files for both 1928 & 1948. Can anybody advise me how I can go about finding out details contained in the files. It is rather a long way to travel from the UK to comply with the Regional Offices comments "Record must be ordered & viewed in this office"
ATB,
Bill

Info obtained from his discharge papers. It could well be 1895.
I have posted further info.
Father John Morgan Lloyd Davies b.29/5/1856 who was a Physician & Surgeon, Pitt Street, Dunedin 1880/1890 married a daughter of Robert McLaren of Dunedin in 1877 and had three sons and one daughter.
Info obtained from www.colonialcdbooks.com/medical_practitioners.

I have ascertained that Richard Rangi was the son of the eminent physician John Morgan Lloyd Davies of Pitt Street, Dunedin.
John Morgan settled in Port Chalmers in 1881 where he commenced practice and two years later became resident house-surgeon at the Dunedin hospital.
Dr Davies was married to a daughter of Mr Robert McLaren of Dunedin and had three sons and one daughter.
Any help on this family would be appreciated.
TIA,
Bill.

Thanks for coming back.
I should have mentioned that Richard Rangi was called up in Royal Welch Fusileers at Cardiff, South Wales 9/1/1918.
However date of his enlistment was 2/3/1916 (afb 25/3)?
It would appear that he was in the UK at this time.

Would appreciate any information relating to Dr Lloyd Davies residing at the above address in Dec 1918.
Also on his son Richard Rangi Lloyd Davies who married Kathleen Fiorenza Vittoria Senball Heard at St Martin Q4 1921.
TIA,

I am in the process of unravelling somewhat of a mystery relating to a WW1 medical discharge document.
Richard Rangi Lloyd Davies was discharged on 5th Dec 1918 as having a heart condition "Date of origin of disability   Since birth.
                 Place of origin of disability  Dunedin New Zealand"
Can anybody give me some advice as to how I might confirm the date and location of this birth was was given as 1893.
Regards,
Bill.

Many thanks for the trouble you have all taken on my behalf.
I have obtained info relating to his service during WW1.
He enlisted 2/3/1916
Mobilized 9/1/1918
Medical discharge 5/12/1918.
I can assume from these documents that he had his heart condition since birth and place of origin of disability as Dunedin, New Zealand.
His address given upon discharge was
Dr Lloyd Davies, Glanafon, Haverfordwest, Pembroke.
This, I hope will connect with info received relating to the marriage in 1921.
Should I be able to make a connection between New Zealand and West Wales I will be only too happy to share it with you all.

Heard is not an uncommon name but with her unusual Christian names I thought  that I would have more luck than I have had.

The person whose cert' we are discussing is still alive but of no use to our research.
The surname is Lloyd Davies.
The father whose occupation was of independent means was Lloyd-Davies.
There is no hyphon on the cert'.
The mother was a Heard; no mention of Roberts was far as we know.
Newhaven District.
Seaford Sub-district.

is Heard a less common name than Davies?
