Hi Alan

If you list the names and probable date range here, someone will do a lookup for you.

Hello Bren

BIRTH details please for the following known children:

Florence Dorothy May WAHLERS, range likely say 1895 - 1905
Herbert Ernest WAHLERS, 15.1.1898,
Eric WAHLERS, range say 1895 - 1905
Harold WAHLERS, range say 1895 - 1905

These are the known offspring....any other WAHLERS births around this time would also be connected I suspect.

The parents were:
Charles Ernest WAHLERS and Lily ROD.
1896 Marriage. folio 0531.
(I have sent off for a copy of the marriage certificate, thank you).

This is all the information I have I am afraid.

Thanks

Alan

Thanks Bee29

Many links here that I have followed, particularly the "paperspast" website, which I would recommend to all.  I note that this covers the years 1840 - 1915.  Is there anything similar from 1915 or are there any plans for such?

The info has allowed me to unite two separate links of the WAHLERS family....as before this  I had information on two separate lines in Australia and New Zealand.  I can now link Louis John  and Charles Ernest as brothers!

Still would welcome info re birth dates as previously to get me link back to England though.......

Regards

No problem, Alan. BTW that should have been Wahlers (with an s) - my mistake!

Papers Past is brilliant, isn't it. There is nothing else online after 1915 as far as I know and I'm not sure if the National Library plans to add later dates in the future.

Hi Alan

Probate for Charles Ernest WAHLERS, of Wellington.
Died 16 Sep 1920. 

The official papers after death describe him as a “Stevedore”, whereas in the will he describes himself as a “Harbour Official”.

Everything to his wife Lily absolutely.
He wanted to be cremated.
Life Assurance = ₤175 . 0 . 0
Furniture = ₤71 . 16 . 6

Hi Bren

Thanks again.....perhaps the will was written some years before he died...hence the change of description.....

In your very first message you said the only marriages for WAHLERS were the four as you listed...is that to present date please?.......I have some names of present/recent WAHLERS for NZ.

I understand that HAROLD GORDON WAHLERS (born NZ 1902) served in WW2 but moved to England after the War.  I believe he died 1992 in England.  Any ideas for where this voyage to UK may be listed?

Regards

Alan
