New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Whaling and whalers in New Zealand waters
« on: Sunday 02 February 25 03:27 GMT (UK) »
I believe Heberley, James, 1809-1899 was a whaler in the Marlborough Sounds, it is mentioned in a couple of books that a family member wrote (autobiography ... "H") about their life on a remote bay in the sounds, rescues at sea, etc

Does anyone else have any ideas?

The boys when it was time to leave, St Joseph's,usually went to Rosmini College (Catholic) to finish their schooling. I am not saying that is where the two Uncles went, but my knowledge of being an old North Shorian.

Thank you. Can update my records now.

You do get interesting ones Minnie
.. Can you adopt me? About the clothing, makes you wonder how many items were cut down from adult clothing, to fit the child, thinking from the financial side.Cheers
