Hi James

Did you contact the Waihemo Museum at Palmerston, Otago which I gave you a few posts back?

Apart from searching the cemetery / burial records with a little bit of gentle persuasion they may be able to photograph some gravesites for you?  It is possible I could even do it next time I am up that way as well .. trouble is don't know when that will be .. certainly before Xmas.

Just a suggestion

Please note ... that Elecia (Elexia / Elexa) Bruce PAUL (born 7 or 8 February, 1877) is NOT part of the Palmerston South family.

[She was the daughter of an Elizabeth and William PAUL who resided for a time in the Taranaki  (North Island) region.   A school record shows that she attended Moturoa School, New Plymouth, along with a brother (Archibald), in 1884. ]

Hello again James

If you would prefer to not expend effort in chasing up on Probates, cemetery records, etc. etc. then it may be in your interests to establish contact with descendants of William and Elizabeth PAUL [via their son Robert George, (deceased) ].
A check of recent electoral rolls shows family members still at the Ronaldsay Street, Palmerston (Otago), address.

NZ Telephone directories (all areas) :

http://whitepages.co.nz/whitepages

[Search on :  (Who)  "PAUL"   + (Where)  -  "Otago"  .... go to page 5 of results ]

Good luck.   :)
