Thanks for that.
Uncle Bill went to live in Blenheim with my elder Sister abt 1995.
I visited there in 2007 but did not see the grave. So it is good to have an exact date.
Looks like I will have to wait til 2013 to see if his Birth comes up on NZ BMD site.

Cheers,
Trish

Hello, wondering if NZBeard can help?  My grandfathers mother was a Rose Baird,he was born 27 december 1912 possibly christchurch definitely south island,  know nothing else about her,(she was 23 on his birth certificate, which I havent sighted yet) she didnt marry my grandfathers father Duncan Gordon Millin, and left when he was very young, he was told she had died but we know she was still alive for many years.  I see there is a rose lillian hannah beard living with kate and william beard in sydeham on 1911 electrol role, I think this is your Ralphs daughter?  Is there a possibility that she is my great grandmother?  Any suggestions would be great, regards
