Thank you for the alert that the individual referred to is still living. I have edited the three posts to maintain their privacy.

Hi Brittbritt, and welcome to RootsChat  :)

I see that the OP has not been on the forum since 2017. Be prepared that you may not get a response from them.

New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Morgan Davis / Davies *COMPLETED*

Hi Darren,

In case we can help, whayt can you tell us about your Morgan Davies? Date and place of birth, date of likely emigration, any marriage, occupation etc.)

I have just searched Papers Past for 'morgan davies' (1855-1880) and found twenty one articles.
https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers

I recommend that you try the same search.

Regards,

Hi Darren, and welcome to RootsChat  :)

The original poster has not been on the forum since March 2021 so may not respond to your post.

In the meantime I can suggest that you reply twice more to this topic (just a smiley icon in each will be fine) and you need three posts to activate your Personal Message facility). Then you can send and receive messages and exchange information in private.

With that in mind, I will need to delete your email, I'm sorry, as the forum takes efforts to protect its members from spam and other online abuses like identity theft.

I hope the original poster or other family researchers make contact with you.

Regards,

Tena koe, Funkybrown, and welcome to RootsChat  :)

I see that the post that you have quoted was made ten years ago. That member might not be active any more.

Would you like to post some information about your ancestry so that anyone connected to your family will see a relationship and hopefully reply?

New Zealand / Re: WW1 Attestation Papers -- dependants?
« on: Saturday 05 July 25 09:17 BST (UK)  »
No, sorry, I can't!  :o

The Wellington office is now closed until 31 August while they move across the road to their new building.

The earliest I'll be able to see the file will be mid October after I return from an overseas trip.

Can you please send me a reminder PM about 13 October.

Regards,

Hi Marmalady,

My apologies, I've just re-read this topic and realised I'd promised to get this file for you.

I'll get it within the next two weeks.

Regards,

Spades
