Alan - Nice to have an email from you.  I am the widow of Fred Knowles (1937-1978).  Your brother, Stu and I are often in touch.  Thought perhaps you were from a branch of the family I didn't know about.  

Are you in the area of NZ where the earthquake struck several weeks ago? 

Regards, Carol Knowles

Hi carol
          I was also thinking i had found a link stu did'nt know about , nice to hear from you all the same. yes we felt the earth quake , but not as bad as christchurch lots of damage there many homes and shops ruined , but no loss of life or serious injury.
