John Milne of Aberdeen is my GG Grandfather born in Fyvie, Aberdeenshire  (although I have a recollection that he may have been from Fyvie but may in fact have been born in Undy - not sure where that memory comes from though)
B July 26 1842

D Mar 11 1883

His parents were
John Milne and Jessie (nee Sim)

Hope that helps

Hi Bobi, I really hope you are still active somewhere....our paths cross again.  My G Grandfather was your GG Grandmother's younger brother  William Henry John Milne (B 1884)


My tree includes
John Milne B July 26 1842 D Mar 11 1883 who married Mereana Heni or Mary Anne Jane or Marian Milne (born Kelly) B circa 1842 D Jan 23 1915

WHJ Milne B1884 D1937
Allan Westbrook Milne B1913 D1977 (when I was 8 years old)
Graham Allan Milne B1946
Tony Roy Milne B1969 (me)

As I mentioned in my earlier post my Ngai Tahu heritage comes from Mereana Heni (daughter of Mary hine Pikihau Kelly (nee here) who is the sister of Bloody Jack (who signed the Treaty of Waitangi as paramount chief of Ngai Tahu in 1840  aka John or Hone Tuhawaiki aka John Touwaick) and John Kelly

Hi Bobi,
Just wondering if you are still looking into the Kelly/Milne ancestry.

I am a direct descendant of John Kelly (Born circa 1800) and am trying to trace his heritage back to the UK.   I'm pretty up to date with the time since he was sent out to Australia as a convict circa 1815/1816.
If you head to my MyHeritage site  you can see my efforts thus far.
I am hoping that someone in the UK might be able to dig a little more effectively to try and find where John was born and details of his parents/siblings. I hit dead ends every time I try. 
I'd love to be able to read the entire transcript of his 'trial' at the old bailey (London) but can only access a brief summary.

Let me know if you are still interested and if I can help with anything in particular.

BTW. I was able to work out my whakapapa back to Bloody Jack and Mary Hine PikihauTuhawaiki (where my Ngai Tahu ancestry comes from).

Tony Milne.
