New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Edward Theodore Chalmers Werner (1864–1954)

Findmypast has an entry for an 1864 birth at sea of a son to Joseph Werner, so this may account for the missing BDM record.  Joseph was a schoolteacher and his wife was Harriet Taylor.

Thank you both very much.  I am embarrassed I didn't check papers past.  I will check the fiche this weekend.  Pastmagic, that is the same Edward - the death of his adoptive daughter is the subject of a recently released book.

New Zealand Completed Requests / Edward Theodore Chalmers Werner (1864–1954)
« on: Friday 09 September 11 00:42 BST (UK)  »
I have been reading about Edward Theodore Chalmers Werner who is said to have been born in Port Chalmers in 1864.  I could not find his birth in BDM NZ.  Can anyone assist please?

William James McKiie died 1941 also aged 55y (another of the same name died 1909 aged 21y -perhaps the one Lu has found the widow of).
Victoria McKie died 1970 aged 82y.

I think my previous post is incorrect, because the Otautau 'Miss M Sheedy' was a probationer only a short while before.  Sorry.

Hi Althea

The last paragraph of this item may be germane.

Added:   And surely this must be another Margaret Sheedy?   :)

[I haven't followed up on Charles Henry WILLIAMS (b. 1907) - there are way too many similarly named chaps.   ;D ]

Henty Chappell married firstly Thomas Owen Williams (1892) and secondly George Whitelaw (1921).  She died in 1931 and is buried in Bromley Cemetery Christchurch.  Children from the first marriage were Margaret Alice (1893) and Charles Henry (1907).  Margaret Alice married George Thorp (1919) and seems to have been widowed the same year, marrying Robert Jennings in 1923.

Apologies if this has been posted on one of the other threads.
