New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: iNTENTION TO MARRY LOOKUP PLEASE

« on: Thursday 02 March 23 02:30 GMT (UK) »

Hi kiwi jeanie,

I have asked for this to be moved to the main board, as you have posted on the wrong board where it will not be seen as easily as the main one.

Cheers

You could be on the right track KHP....

Minniehaha.

Just spotted that Minnie. So appears in the 1972 E/R but not showing for the 1981 E/R as far as I can see.

Perhaps an email needs to be fired off to the Funeral Directors, to see what answers can be found?

Cheers

The one I posted above was buried at Purewa, which is a long way from where David is buried. In saying that, we have to go through the trash bin before we find the person we are after.

She may have remarried?

Minniehaha.

That is what I thought Minnie, there is is one, which is near enough for the birth date but year is 1903, and the only one I can see that just about matches.

1989/30439 Wilson Anne Elizabeth 12 July 1903

Obviously, it will need to be checked out, as it may be the wrong lass, that is just sharing the same birth date.

Two searches, and one has given me another sibling in Canada .. now to search for them especially if the Scottish naming pattern continues.

My computer guy says ESET is better than Kaspersky and I have used it for abuit 2 years without any problems.

I have used them for about four years, no problems at all. My IT man said it was a good one.

Lanarkshire / Re: James Hamilton, quilter

In the 1891 census he was a tailor. I cannot find this reference. To me, the quilt looks as though it is made with fabrics a tailor might have to hand.

It is a lovely quilt.

No bright colours of today were used. They grabbed what they could get their hands on, sometimes flour sacks were bleached etc. Wonder if this was hand sewn instead of machine, depending on the year it was made. Apologies, the quilter in me speaks.
