Hi there,
Have just found a connection to this family through my father's side. I would be most grateful for any information/certificates/photos of this family. Particularly interested in their life in and around Te Aroha.
William Nicholls married H Te Whakaawa
Their daughter Alice Grey Nicholls married Charles John Dearle 1880
Their daughter Annie Dearle married George William Rogers
Their daughter Elsa Mabel Jean Rogers married Eric Howard in 1928 = 3 children
Elsa died 1956 Tauranga.
many, many thanks!

Thanks so much for that DelBoy...You have saved me some work! ;D
In the library today I found reference to William Grey Nicholls in the Dictionary of Biography C1960...Under the name Wiremu Kerei Nikora.
It mentions that his father, William Nicholls Sen, arrived on the Aurora C1840 and married the sister of the Chief of Ngaiterangi Tribe...Am wondering about the name of this Chief.
