Patterson Smith in New Zealand

[toby webb]

I believe that Kenneth M Patterson Smith emigrated to NZ some time after  late 1950s. He would have had to become naturalized so i assume that there would be some paperwork associated with this. Can anyone offer some advice? Thanks, Toby.

You have hit the nail right on the head, rosie17. Of immediate interest is the mention of a brother. The 1939 Register shows a name blocked out. This is a surprise for my name is not blocked out and as far as I am aware, I am still alive & kicking. At some point I supose his name and age will be revealed.  Thanks. T

His name is visible on the headstone,

I have been ambiguous. I learnt today, thanks to the kind help, that the brother is Derek, but that is all I know. One day the 1939 details will be revealed and there will be more from other sources. 'Derek' is a good start.
