Hi all - I am looking for two people born late 1800's whom I can't find any record of past 1928 (mentioned in police gazettes in NSW and NZ). They possibly changed their names in order to not be found which would make it an impossible task.
I have looked on Ancestry, Trove, Papers Past, Archives, BDM NZ - has anyone got any suggestions of other sites to look on. I'm trying to find where they ended up. Thankyou 8)

FamilySearch..org?

Information which I added to this thread has now been deleted by me.
I received a message from the OP asking that "no further information about the family, be posted to this thread".
> It's disappointing that that wasn't made clearer at the outset. The names of the persons being sought were given in the original request.
The information I gathered and placed here, was all available in the public domain and my intent in adding it to this thread was to assist others and cast a wider "search" net. ~ Lu <

As you say Lu, this is disappointing especially as it was in the public domain and it may have been of interest to others in the family. And also others who may have been inspired by the search engines used to track down their family members.
I think I have mentioned before that the moment I become aware of a resource that I have not searched in I do a search for my ancestors.
I know I have mentioned doing this when i have responded to newbies requests on where to start etc.
Are you at least able to list the resources you used please?

I apologise for the misunderstanding - I am trying to help a friend and was hoping more experienced researchers could point me in the direction of resources that I might not be familiar with. As I initially said I was trying to track them after 1928 - I had access to everything that was added to the thread pre that date and thought in hindsight maybe it was best to not continue the discussion in the public domain

Good evening,
Due to an impulsive decision on the part of one forum member following a confidential Personal Message exchange, the content of this topic which would have been invaluable to present and future researchers has been destroyed.
That action was not appropriate and was disrespectful to the original poster and to the forum members. It should not happen again.
The best course of action is always to recommend that the original poster seek guidance from the Moderation Team and thereby allow us to discuss the issue with them.
