Caithness / Re: Brock - Thurso to Buffalo, NY!
« on: Tuesday 01 March 16 07:27 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,
This is an old post now but hopefully someone is still watching it.  I want to find more about the ancestry of this family to ascertain if they are related to my Brocks.
William Brock m Janet Campbell 8/12/1826 Thurso, Caithness.
Two of their children, John (b1834) and Donald (b1832) emigrated to NZ.  Both were masons.
John m Margaret Corrigal
Donald m Sarah Pollock
They both had family in NZ.
I am very interested in William Brock's ancestry, hopefully back a couple of generations.
Can anyone help?  I am happy to help in any way I can.

Cheers
Helen

That is interesting reading.  I see that there were a lot of small private maternity hospitals with only a few beds, so I may never know, but it is worth trying.

Hi and thanks again twiggytree, in the article this Wharenana was turned into flats in 1928 so it can't be the one I am after (1946-1949).  Wharenana Timaru was up for sale in 1920 so could be that one.

Hi Janette

No, I hadn't seen it, thank you so much, precious photos.
Wharenana remains a mystery.

Hello listers
Does anyone know anything at all (no matter how trivial) about the above hospitals?  My older siblings were born at Wharenana Hospital, Hataitai, in the late 1940s, that information gleaned from their birth notices in the newspaper.  The only reference I have found to this hospital is a death at Whare Nana Private Hospital, Kensington St.  My map does not put Kensington St as Hataitai.  I was born in the Bethany Hospital on Kensington St, I have written to the Salvation Army for any information, haven't heard back yet, but any information from you would be welcome.  Any photos would be doubly welcome.

Regards
Helen
