Death Notice *COMPLETED*
« on: Sunday 07 November 10 02:21 GMT (UK) »
I am hoping someone will be able to find a death notice in The Herald I am doing this on behalf of another person so unfortunately the details are a little vague
Female
last name Wilson  wife of (*) possibly late 70s early 80s
she died late April 2010 or May 16th 2010 she was from Waiheki Island sorry not a lot to go on but hopefully someone can help.
I have looked on the memory tree but not much luck there
Many Thanks KateNZ

Have you looked to see if she is buried with her husband at all.

https://www.bdmhistoricalrecords.dia.govt.nz/Search/Search.aspx?Path=%2FdeathSelect.m%3Fsort%3Dnatno#matches

This is the link for the Wilson I found on Births, Death and Marriages.

If she is under 80 she will not appear there

Hi Kate,

Have you thought of contacting the Onetangi Cemetery for the burial date.

http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/council/services/cemeteries/enquiries.asp

The nearest I could find for the 16th May 2010 was this:

I have looked through April and May Herald notices for you and haven't spotted anything close to those dates. There were 2 female Wilsons, late April and early May from out of Auckland ( Tauranga and Rotorua ) and just saw the one from Auckland on the 12th April ... I didn't catch the name of the husband either before it was removed, happy to have another look for you if you'd like to PM me
