BAXTER FAMILY Newtownsandes
« on: Wednesday 29 August 12 01:16 BST (UK) »
Trying to locate any info on Baxter family namely ANNIE b. c. 1860 in Newtownsandes (Now Moyvane co kerry). Dont have her fathers christian name but said to have been a "blacksmith". Not  sure of denomination of Annie, she married in a Presbyterian church in Auckland but may have changed religion as her husband was presbyterian.
Any leads would be great.  Have tried irishgenealogy site lots of baxters but no Annie record.

Regards :)

The Baxter surname is not really an RC name - do you know when she arrived in NZ? 

Was just having a look at the Moyvane website and there's a similar query - are you checking it out there too or is it just coincidence!

Hi, I was checking this out on Moyvane parish board also.  In the meantime the person I was helping has come back to me with amended information.
Annie was presbyterian and was born in Newtownards N.Ireland - there seemed to be some confusion within the family with Kerry !!!!

I havent been active on the search for a while, as I also know that the family have info from her arrival in nz it is only the Irish end they are researching.
Thank you for your reply. Regards
