Hi  texasjoe

I have added some information to your other thread (re: Maria Ann GARRICK) showing a possible connection between Thomas William COOK and Elizabeth HUNTER.

I am not certain now if the information that I recieved a few years ago is correct with Elizabeth Ann Grayson, as you state that this woman was born in NZ.

Elizabeth Ann Coad Father Stephen Coad

Elizabeth Ann Cook  Father Thomas Cook mother Mary Ann Cook nee Jones
Born in England

As Thomas &  Mary Ann Cook married on the 25.12.1847 St Giles With Cripplegate London England

Nice work there Lucy

I'll take this information with me to the library and see what I can dig up also.

Be the weekend

marriage
Olive May  Cook to  Nathaniel  Bates  1925

this date on BDM's doesn't seem correct

This could be your Bates :

1881 - Nathaniel is a farmer in Riverton the Electorate being Wallace - looks like he was Freehold on Section 17, Block 12 in Riverton. 

1893 & 1896 -  if this is the same Chap, he has changed occupation to that of a Blacksmith, again the Electorate is Wallace, place of residence is Wairio.

There is also a Nathaniel Jnr living at Wairio who is also a Blacksmith in 1881.

No sign of Olive in the 1896 roll.

Cheers
KHP

texasjoe  ...  you didn't give a date for the Olive May BATES you are seeking ?

Thomas William COOK and Elizabeth HUNTER - married 1904 :

Children   (Up to today's date, 1910)

1905 - COOK - Charlotte Annie

1908 - COOK - Olive May

[The Olive May COOK who married Nathaniel BATES - 1925, is probably the above daughter of Thomas W. and Elizabeth ?]
