Clement Gascoigne GROSVENOR 1891-1953

He had a farm at Orere Point near Clevedon somewhere according to the electoral rolls. Trying to find out exactly where this was.

Married Kathleen SOMMERVILLE (nee NOLAN) in 1924. She left him in 1939 and went back to Whanganui. Possibly divorced in 1948. His sister Adela was executrix for his will in 1953.

Thanks

Doesn't help much, but his attestation papers say "Orere Rd, Clevedon" (6 Nov 1940)

Hi Ian,

A nice drive through it on the Coast Road.  Been fishing there.   A little snippet about it.
