hi, I am looking for Harry D Yeates born 1913 in Headington, Oxford. I was told that he went to New Zealand
-
Hi Genseeks,
Might he have been Harry Dalton YATES?
A man with this name died on 15 June 2004 aged 89. Year of birth 1915.

would it be easy with a name like Yeates to see if there was any living rellies still living in New Zealand, by another person I was told there was but when I asked them they never got back to me.

Here is the death record from BDM's

in 1939 they had a son but I think he stayed in the UK
-
There looks like another person that is sharing the same Post Office address in 1978, a male, and an artist. They are the only 3 Yeates that are using that Post Office. Initials P.J. 1981 he is at a different address.
Cheers

-
P.J? thats his son

Until it is verified whether this chap is still living, I put his initials up.

The current Electoral Rolls would need to be checked, and not knowing if he stayed in the Bay of Islands or moved. Can't see anything in the telephone directory, but then he could be unlisted.

Wouldn't his initials go first?
Cheers

I don't think there is a hard and fast rule, although most seem to.Maybe it depends on whose name the account is in.

Hi Genseeke,
There is a postal address in the link,you could send a letter snail mail.A phone call would be a toll call for most of us,plus folk often wont divulge information to a 3rd person,

Hi Totalmarine,
Welcome to RootsChat
I am very sorry to have to let you know that sadly we have lost contact with genseeke. I have tried googling the information we have but nothing is coming up on searches apart from this RootsChat post.
Old members do however contact us all the time (about email addresses changes) hopefully they will pick up on your new reply very soon.
Regards
Sarah
