Hi Tony

Many thanks for getting back to me. I've only just found RootsChat - hence why I've only sent one message to date. I'll send another one in a moment and do as you suggest.

Many thanks for your help,

Chris

Morning Tony

I came across your thread of messages regarding Parkhurst Boys transported to New Zealand and was especially interested in Fiona Beals's message regarding her ancestor - William BEALS.

William is my 3 X great grandfather too and he was actually the son of Richard and Grace BEELS (nee SEMMENS).

William's grandson (my great grandfather) John Henry BEALS, joined the British Army and I have his marriage certificate, dated 4 March 1911, showing he was in the 16th Lancers and based in Norwich. On the 1911 Census he is shown as being born in Auckland, New Zealand.

I would love to be able to share any information I have with Fiona and was hoping you could pass on my personal email address to her if you didn't mind.

Likewise, I would be only too pleased to let you know of any information I have which you would find useful.

Kind regards

Chris Beal
