New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Ho ho hoping someone can do a Wellington look up for me

Thanks so much guys, as usual you have worked a miracle in my absence... I managed to spill my lone, celebratory g'n't over my laptop keyboard last night.  Here's hoping it dries out and sobers up so I can chase down leads on the comparatively big screen, rather than on my phone  ::)

Ooooh Janette, you are still magic!  So she had a brother in the States and she ended up here...  how very intriguing.  I wonder if she came over with him and if he was the American Walter Studer that Mckha found in paperspast...  :)  Hmmm, re-read your post and saw it was A Studer that was her contact...

Her mystery continues... I am glad, in a way, that I hadn't just lost my knack - she is playing hard to find.  I wonder if such simple annotations on the headstone are a Swiss thing, or if she was just a lone lady over here.  Once we have found out more about her, I think I will get her plot tidied up.  She just seems so alone over there, and she has such a pretty name...

 :)  Hello Rootschatters,

Long time, no post from me.  It seems full time study, part time work, full time Mum-ing and part time Scout leading does not lend itself to family tree sleuthing.

I hope you are all well and looking forward to some nicer weather over the festive season.  8)

I am starting my family tree hunt off with someone I am not even remotely related to, but who I see when I drive through Waikumete - Matilda / Mathilde Studer https://archway.archives.govt.nz/ViewFullItem.do?code=23815422

On her headstone is just says 'Mathilde Studer 1906 - 1962  R.I.P".  On Archway she is listed as Matilda Studer, but right year of death.  Seems sad that she was no one's daughter, sister, mother or aunt.  I just found her on the cemetery search. https://www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/cemeteries/Pages/RecordDetails.aspx?recordId=C71C60F1311C0BEE3C1ACC6C69ECB475 So I guess she was Catholic.

She is my curiosity case at the moment... any of you seasoned sleuthers able to shed some light?

p.s. I'd still like to see the New Zealand Police Gazettes appear one day!

That would be awesome!

Hope they all use the Waikumete style search, it's by far the easiest to navigate :)

Hi Amy,

How wonderful to hear from you!  Are you descended from that line?  It would be lovely to add to the tree and share what we have.  PM me when you get the chance and I'll send what I have ;)
