Hi and welcome to rootschat.
Yes, as Alan said, best remove your email address, this is a policy of Rootschat that we don't have our personal details on here.
It might have been best if you started a new thread, as I think this one has been completed.
I will do the look up of the death notices but you will have to supply me the actual death date it makes it easier to search the paper.
Unfortunately the Probate can not be looked up at the library, that is at a different place and I won't be able to do it for you. You will have to start a new thread called say ...".Auckland Archives - Hawes"
Cheers

Hi KHP - this is all a result of a question raised last night on the Trade Me genealogy board. The only date of death anyone came up with was this one:
HAWES, LILY
Plot : N/A
Interment Type: Cremation
Title: Mrs
Surname : HAWES
Given Names: LILY
Age : 51
Gender : Female
Occupation: MARRIED
Date Of Death : 31-Dec-1962
Date Of Cremation : N/A
Date Of Burial : N/A
Funeral Director : LAMBERT R FOUNTAIN LIMITED
Head Stone Details : N/A
I personally don't know how to find actual dates of death but in the mean time even if you can get this one for her it would be great.

Thanks Lynda,
I had already checked the website for the date. Actually, it is not worth me going all the way to get one death notice as I live in the country. If I am up that way then I get them, otherwise I use the NZSG Branch. I will add this one on, but it is usually a couple of weeks before I get them sent to me.

So can you get the death dates? Could I ask what you mean "you use the NZSG Branch" - what info can you get there, just the death date?
-
Lynda,
NZSG = New Zealand Society of Genealogists. They hold copies of the NZ Herald Death Notices from 1940 onwards. As mentioned I live in the country and I am not in the position to do look ups straight away like other Rootschatter. It is easier for me to do this than travel out of town.
I have a few notices of mine still to get, so once I have all 3 of the Hawes, then I will add them to mine, send away for them, and wait a couple of weeks for them to send me the notices
The Pukekohe Cemetery dates - I can trawl through the cemetery but it will be the next time I go into town.
Cheers
KHP
BTW we usually just say TM on here

Many thanks KHP - That is great to know. Hopefully Sapphire will read this.

Someone is looking up the death dates today at Pukekohe - I'll let you know when we have these.
-
It's ok, I am also on TM

Hi Scottygirl,
If you go to the BDM website
https://www.bdmhistoricalrecords.dia.govt.nz/search/
You can get the date of death by narrowing the dates until you have the correct date
John Baker Hawes died 10/9/1989,I got this by elimination

Scottygirl,
I forgot to mention that when requesting death notices from the NZSG it is usually with a donation and a SAE :)

KHP

thank you all!
umm so if you can tell me what you need with regards to info or donations etc plse let me know.
no rush for any info, just whenever anyone can etc.
for donations you can PM me and we can do an internet banking trasfer?
very very new to this, so you will have to maybe explain some terms used on here or certain documents, and where exactly i would find those etc
thanks for sorting the thread out ;)
-
Hi Sapphire,
No need to worry about internet banking for the donation Saphire, I will be attaching your three to mine, so the donation is on me. :D
Cheers

Sapphire,
Request for notices will be posted off tomorrow. Will let you know when they arrive. Could you please let your threads know on the TM site that someone is taking care of the look ups.
As mentioned before you will need to start another new thread for your Auckland Archives.
Cheers
KHP
-
I see you already have the death notices.
KHP
-
except the one for "gordon hawes"
...so sorry i wasnt sure if i was to write on the tm board that someone else is sending for them that you yourself might read it and think i was meaning someone else altogether, and then no one would be finding them as everyone is thinking someone else is doing it. which is your tm name? ...i actually should have said KHP is doing it, that would have done it! apologies again.
however if you still willing to send away for gordons one i would truely appreciate it.

All three have gone into the mail box this afternoon. Mr KHP was going into town so took them.
Sorry I don't give out my TM name on here. I hardly post on the genealogy site, only if something needs to be said. I am on watch lists.
