New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Hazar Dixon
« on: Friday 31 August 18 07:48 BST (UK) »
Hello, I m related to Hazar and found out about his occupation as an animal pound keeper from newspaper records.
I asked the local librarian to send me a photo of his gravestone and was delighted with it but unfortunately it simply had his name on it but no other family information or even a date of death.
I have often wondered about his name and wondered if it could have been a contraction of Balthazar? My own great uncle was named Moses Thomas Dixon and I have lots re him and of course of my father Mervyn Watkin Dixon whose father was Fred William Dixon, his Frederick Cornelius and back to the cousin Hazar.
I would love to know your connection and any info about Hazar's journey to New Zealand. I did have some info about a trip via Malaya but cannot confirm this.
I am Catherine, Mervyn's daughter by the way.
Regards to you and the family!!
