Auckland Deaths Surname "BRUCE" COMPLETED with thanks
« on: Thursday 06 November 14 16:56 GMT (UK) »
After years of research I have narrowed down (from Electoral Rolls) what I am seeking.
I am looking for the Death/Obit of 3 BRUCE members,in Auckland.
I actually found the grave stone of
..Arthur Redpath Bruce 1885-1935 at O'Neils Point Cemetery

Now I am seeking his wife…Jane Allan Will Taylor Bruce (born 1880)…died possibly between 1957 & 1963 (as per Electoral Roll).

Also:...their 2 children who never married.
Beatrice Taylor Bruce (born 1910)…died after 1981 and her brother..
William Redpath Bruce (born 1912) died after 1981
Last known place for Beatrice and William was…Kimptons Rd.Brookby
 Both info from Electoral Rolls

Most appreciated….Cheers from Canada  Ann

Minniehaha & Kiwihalfpint………Thank you so very much..I am amazed..bless you both.
Now I have been able to complete that part of the Bruce family.
They arrived there in 1926 from Berwickshire,Scotland.I found the ship list.

 Minniehaha…I see you list Vancouver ,BC.,Canada and the Name "Grant".
Is there anything I might be able to research or lookup for you…please just ask.

KHP…thank you for your follow up on death date for William Redpath Bruce.
…and for the 2 web sites…went there and found the death date of William Redpath's sister,BeatriceTaylor Bruce.
Neither married….how sad.
Offer is open to you if you need any help in BC Canada..just ask

Have bookmarked both sites….again tons of thanks !!!

Goes to prove RootsChatters always seem to rally round and come through.
   Cheers Ann

Although this topic has been completed, I would like to publicly acknowledge the effort Ann [ajjbc] has to gone to in Canada on my behalf on an unrelated matter. She made an offer of help in one of her posts above; I took her up on this and she has been an absolute star! sending many documents.

Thank you so much Ann.  :)

The best of wishes...........
