New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Where do you look
« on: Monday 02 January 12 07:25 GMT (UK)  »


Hi Foehn,
 I was just researching William Chisholm Wilson today and found your post on your ancestor.  WC Wilson owned the New Zealand Herald newspaper and I believe his sons then owned it before selling it in the late 20th century.  Wilson came from Scotland to Tasmania (van dieman's land) 1833-1841; then to Sydney before going to NZ to start his newspaper business.You may find information on your ancestor on Papers Past NZ.
Cheers,

Hi Kelly,
I have a Peter Driver from Yorkshire in my family tree. His parents are Joseph and Susanna Driver.  He was a convict and sent to VDL.

Is this your relation?

Hi Victoria
No need to worry about the money.  If you feel like it you can donate it to your favourite charity.

I will be going to the Archives on Thursday, hopefully I'll be able to get everything in one trip.  Once I have the info (whether all or some) I'll contact you so I can post it.

Cheers,
Carolyn  :)

Hi Victoria,
I live in Hobart and would be happy to visit the Archives Office for you. 

Just let me know the info you want looked up and I will visit this week.  No problem as I work in the City.

Cheers,
