Not sure of info, but Mk2 must have given you the death dates.
Did you contact Rotorua cem for deatils, if there

Alternatively you can contact NZSG Branch Matamata (entry off NZSG INdex CD)
Maybe they were buried that area:
Mackie's and Boyd's Funeral Register
Name CRERAR James Dunbar
Date 1971
Reference (22/1971)
Further enquiries to Matamata Branch - NZSG

Hi no, it was a reference to a piece of land in Rotorua, 1971, off Archway.
Suggested she post here, so maybe sks could check Rotorua fiche. :)
I believe J Dunbar Crerar is different person, noted him, think he arrived a lot earlier.

.... their names were james and helen crerar, james was born in glasgow in 1924.
Hi
The following, looks like the death for James ?
From NZ Death Index (online)
1997 / 44709 CRERAR - James - d.o.b. 12 August 1924
[If wife Helen was younger than James, then it's always possible that she is still living ?]
