Hi Lancaster103

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cronin-670

^  Above is a contact for a person who has an interest in Edward Dennis Joseph CRONIN, (father of Maxwell Joseph CRONIN) ... and the other children of Mary Jane and Bartholomew CRONIN.

Hi again lancaster103

Returning to the above link to CRONIN family ... this one is probably worthwhile you making contact with.  ;)

There seems to be additional information in a "tree" published on ancestry.com. (by presumably the same person ? )
> at ancestry (Public member trees) search on " Bartholmew" +  "CRONIN" + died "new zealand".
[The tree is named as "ao'sullivan" ]

It has information for Eileen Agnes CRONIN (LINCOLN) (paternal aunt of Maxwell CRONIN) - and the wife of Frank LINCOLN.    It named their two (now deceased) sons.
According to the Will of Frank LINCOLN who died in 1948, he had 2 sons and 4 daughters.

None of the children were named in the Wills of Eileen Agnes LINCOLN (d. 1928) or Frank LINCOLN (1948).

Hi lancaster103

Well such an awful lot of information now placed in this thread   ;D... and I for one am guilty of "dumping" much which probably seems somewhat irrelevant.  It is though intended as a "means to an end".   

Many of the people mentioned in the Wills of Maxwell's family members, are now also deceased and it's not easy to find the next generation.

My recommendation (> and to spare you having to wade through all the probate files etc.) would be for you to make contact with the two "Wikitree" people who have links to the GARLAND and CRONIN families.

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Scouller-35
GARLAND family


https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cronin-670
CRONIN family


If they are unable to assist, then there are still some other "avenues" we can look to.

Good luck.   :)

Death notice received for Patricia Barbara CRONIN (known as Pattie).

Confirms that she died @ Auckland on 20.10.1996, "daughter of the late Roy* and Florence and sister of the late Max Cronin".

Cremated @ Purewa Cemetery, so the records are incorrect in showing the name as Patricia Margaret.

*As stated.

Hello Adrian,

I have made contact with a cousin of the late M. J. Cronin and he is very much looking forward to hearing from you.

I am about to PM his e-mail address to you........
