Spades - I think this may be best if moved to New Zealand. I will leave it in your capable hands.

All three Probates are in Wellington NZ.

Hi Wendy, and welcome to RootsChat! ;D

I can take photos of these probates for you.

Just for future reference, it's always best to post a topic on the Board specific to a country or region so if you have any other lookup requests or other questions for New Zealand come and visit the New Zealand Board.

RootsChat can be a bit overwhelming to start with so feel free to ask questions on the Beginners Board until you feel comfortable.

Thanks Kiwitaylor, for directing me to this topic. ;D

Hi Wendy,

This is far in excess of my usual level of efficiency, but I was about to visit Archives NZ when I was alerted to your lookup request, and added your files to my online request. I have photos of all three probates for you.

You will need to provide me with your email address BUT not in reply to this topic, as rootsChat doesn't allow personal emails to protect members from identity theft, spam, etc.

Instead you just need to reply twice to this topic (even just a smiley will do). Once you have three posts your Personal Message (PM) facility will be activated and you can send me your email address via a PM. Or I can PM you...
