Joseph PARKER where is he buried?..Completed.
« on: Friday 17 January 14 01:21 GMT (UK) »
Among my late Auntie's photo collection is one of a grave with the following inscription....
In Loving Memory of Joseph Dearly Beloved Husband of Sarah Parker. Died Feb 24 1926 Aged 61. At Rest.
Have tried searching some of the on line data bases, starting with Wellington and Gisborne,  but have had no luck and could find nothing on Papers Past,
Any help most appreciated.

Spades Minniehaha & Janette,
Thank you for clearing up that mystery, now I know where he fits in the wider family.
Have also learnt something new,  read the "Advertisements"  the funeral notice could well be there.
Cheers
