G'day Ann

The answer is, probably. I cannot conceive of any reason why he should insert an incorrect year on such a document, but do not confine your search to Auckland. He may have arrived elsewhere and moved north. There is also no guarantee that he lived in Auckland city, the address is from the people of Auckland province and therefore probably covers the northern half of the North Island.

Hi there,

These records dont show what year or ship he came to NZ on, but may help you locate area of arrival and areas he lived in. Do you think that this Henry & Harry may be one and the same?

hi Del,

First thank you so so so much for all that info.... 

my goodness that is alot of typing and work you have done for me.. but its really great , yes harry and henry seem the same man..

I was very interested to see he was a linesman.

Yes i had seen the web site for the bussey, but didnt take much notice of the bussy side, as i was busy telling them about how they got the walmsleys info incorrect.. (you ant believe what is on death certs.. )

you are wonderful.. thank you so much  ...i will print it out and study it..

 Sarah Ann is the sister to Emma our gr gr grandmother...  so its great finding info on them

do you have a cd on the NZ elec rolls?

    
best wishes
