WAHLERS Lookup please
« on: Tuesday 13 November 07 02:03 GMT (UK) »
Trying to connect my WAHLERS family in UK....mostly from Liverpool area....with NZ,
but need to go back a number of generations.

I have Charles Ernest WAHLERS, born about 1872, england who married Lily Rod or Rodd, born about 1870, the marriage possibly in NZ......children possibly all born in NZ
Herbert Ernest WAHLERS, Born NZ 1898...married Ethel May ? 1921, died?, cremation at Purewa Cemetery. Military 1914-18.
Dorothy....no details
Eric...no details
Harold...may be Harold Gordon....no details....

Any help with these (or any other WAHLERS in NZ) would be appreciated..particularly with info re parents or place of birth of Charles Ernest WAHLERS

Hi awhal

Here’s something to start you off:

1896 Marriage. folio 0531
Charles Ernest WAHLERS
Lily ROD

Only other NZ marriages for WAHLERS:
(*) Ethel Joan to William Easter MILLAR
(*) Florence Dorothy May to Rupert King JACOMB
1921 Herbert Ernest to Ethel May TASKER
(*) Herbert John to Myra Joyce POWELL

Looks like they might have lived in Wellington as there is reference to a Charles Ernest & a Lily on the 1919 Electoral Roll for Wellington Suburbs and the Supp for Wellington East.

Hi Alan

Don't know if you managed to read my 2nd reply yesterday before it disappeared.....:

Lily and Charles are buried here:
http://www.newplymouthnz.com/default.htm

not much info, perhaps contact the Council.
FYI, Kilbirnie is a suburb of Wellington.

Hi Bren

Thanks for this....yes did see this first time round.....had to log off as suddenly found it was early hours of morning here in uk.

Not much info re Cemetery Site......looks like if I get the marriage certificate for Charles Ernest/Lily Rod  the details will include date and place of birth for each....am I correct?......hopefully this will give me a link back to uk..............presumably this can be ordered via internet from somewhere....

Thanks again

Alan

Thanks both for your messages...

I will send off (fax if possible) for a marriage certificate.

Can you direct me to likely places to search for births...Florence Dorothy May, Herbert Ernest (15.1.1898 - which I have), Eric and Harold WAHLERS?

Thanks

Alan

Hi Alan

All NZ BDMs up to 1990 are on fiche.
It depends on which country you are in and who has purchased copies of the fiche.
