Title: Hugh Williamson family- from Scotland 1955 *COMPLETED*
Post by: williamn on Saturday 30 January 10 20:05 GMT (UK)

Does anyone have any info on Hugh and Helen Williamson and sons who sailed from Glasgow to Wellington in 1955?  Residence at one time was Linwood, Christchurch.  First residence may have been in Renwicktown area!

Thanks

Haven't been able to find Helen WILLIAMSON.

It appears they may be the couple who divorced in Christchurch in 1970 ?
[See the following link. ]

Their sons are likely to still be living, but not able to assist with a search for them.  [I take it you have their names from the passenger list ? ]

The following is the link to telephone directories covering all New Zealand - hopefully you may have some luck tracing them that way.   :)
