Hi Owairoa,
My paternal grandmother Sarah Annie Pearce was born and grew up in Coromandel, New Zealand. Her mother, Elizabeth Annie Sprint died on 18 April 1899 and was married to Henry Pearce who died on 10 January 1923. My grandmother had brothers by the name of Thomas Whitley, Ebenezer and Henry (who was known as 'Dump'), and sisters by the name of Isabel and Elizabeth. The Pearce and Sprint families came from Portadown.
The names are remarkably similar to the names you have listed. Are you able to tell me more about my family. My father didn't know much about his family but there was much speculation about the Sprints as it is such an unusual name.
Hope you can help.
