Australia / Re: ROBERTS/SMITH Puzzle pieces Missing

Hi dhouston - it was a Harry Roberts (b.1940, Nelson NZ) who thought that i check out rootschat to see if an answer could be found to the question. It most likely made more questions - but obviously after Emma died, BDM records show the rest of the family had an 'Ellen' as the mother. Harry Roberts and his wife Yvonne (b. 1942 NZ) will be visiting us in NZ 11-12 Feb, and then on to Nelson to visit Yvonne's family. My husband and I will also be in that area 23-27 Feb and hopefully will be able to unravel some family ties. It is with the Mullany/Mullaney connection of the family - mother spoke often of Rene (md Winnie) and Tot who md Goodman, this latter side is the relation i am going to see. Harry's dad Anthony md Ethel Maureen Winnie, second child of Rene and Harry Orlando Winnie, s/o Orlando Hannibal Winnie and Ellen Orlando. Have been in Levin today, where the family interred the ashes of Robt Wm Mullany, s/o of Bill and g'son of Hugh and Susan Mullany - if that makes sense to you? Thanking you and kind regards - Scottishdancer
