New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Enos Lewis
« on: Saturday 07 January 12 20:18 GMT (UK) »
wow thank you all for the quick replies. Spades, unfortunately we do not have any official certificates for Enos which makes this search all the more difficult. His wife Annie Orland is buried in the Waimairi Cemetery in Christchurch - althea this might be the thing your reference is pointing me to. Suzy W - yes this is helpful, I understand my granduncle had some input into that website and he and I are in regular contact. I think I will approach the Christchurch City Council and see what can be unearthed there (no pun intended). The main puzzle we have is that Annie and Enos had four children prior to his death. Then another child carrying the name Lewis was born 5 years after his supposed date of death which was calculated from his wifes headstone I believe. Without certificates it is really difficult to confirm or deny anything! Thanks again.

New Zealand Completed Requests / Enos Lewis
« on: Saturday 07 January 12 08:19 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find any information on the origins of my ancestor Enos Lewis. I know that he married Annie Orland on 20 Nov 1866. Enos was born in 1845. He died on 11 Jul 1879 and was reportedly buried in the Little River Cemetery, Banks Peninsula. I have not actually sighted a headstone there. Internet searches have returned a plethora of Enos Lewis's however, without any knowledge of where he came from or when that occurred, it is difficult to narrow this down. Does anyone have information on this? Happy to discuss further.

hello to you both. I stumbled across your posts through a google search as I start my journey back through the Rice and Bradford genealogies. Robert and Janet's daughter Mabel Mary Rice married Stuart Lewis and they were my great grandparents. I am very appreciative of the information you have shared in your discussions to date. Can I stay in touch with you regarding any information that may not be shared in this discussion? Looking forward to further discussions.
