When Richard Astley drowned he left 2 sons and 3 daughters.
Richard was 10 and Sydney 4 weeks old
Daughters were Adelaide,(Addie), Constance(Margaret) ,and Alice
Emily died just after and Alice and Sydney were put in an orphanage.
 Richard and Emily are  buried together at Waikumete in Auckland , along with 3 of their other children.
Mary died 11 August 1889 aged 3 months,Annie died 16 November 1892  aged 14 weeks ,and Charles died 19 Nov 1892 also 14 weeks
Alice died in 1968. Sydney died 1958.
What I want to know is more about  Sir Richard D'arcy Astley  from England . He was their grandfather.
Do you have any other info on him.?

Hello Lyn,

Yes I have quite a bit of info on the family probably easier if you email me. I will send you my email address in a private message!
Kind Regards

Hello Fern,

Have you discovered any more about the Hall/Fleming/Lovett/Astley connections? I have information on Hall & Fleming, & also on Hall & Lovett, all in Ireland. However, I am confused about the Lovett connection on the marriage certificate. Perhaps you could send me a PM.
