Redwood (Blenheim) - Look up please

Hi Mare

Anything to ward off the spammers, is OK by me!   

I think this "new ruling" is reasonable   ....  providing newcomers to the site, are advised of it when they come "onboard".       (And obviously there are a few quick ways around this hurdle.    ).

Hi Everyone - thanks for all the help with the message issues!!

Christine's message did get through and I've sent her another reply - hope you got it Christine...

It does sound like the same Bernadette as I know in later life she was remarried to Jack Hearne - my mother-in-law tells me she was known as Babe..

The plot thickens!!

Cheers.....Samantha 

P.S. The only photos we have are of fairly poor quality and were taken in the 1970's...

P.S.S. Bronwen very kindly went to the Museum in Marlborough in April and located a photo of the family in the Redwood file - unfortunately the file wasn't transfered successfully by the museum staff, to her CD and so I don't have a copy at this stage - might have to plan a trip to NZ!!  What a treasure that photo would be!!

Me again Christine,

Bernadette Redwood married Nathaniel Green in 1908 (Francis Redwood married them).  They had five children (three of whom survived) and were divorced in 1923.

Cheers...Samantha

Hi there. Tim Redwood  here. I  had a reunion for the descendants of Henry Redwood Senior a couple of years back, and his descendants  include Charles with a daughter Bernadette. I have a named pic of the family. I  also have the family tree which was updated at that time, and happy to share it. Not sure how to share my contact details  with you, as I just joined tonight, expressly to make contact, in answer to your initial  enquiry.

Hello Tim

Welcome to RootsChat.   

Because we are not permitted to add our contact details in these threads, the very best thing to do, is simply acknowledge this post >  just by adding an emoji (smiley face or whatever you wish).  Then repeat that ... and by doing this you will have "scored" the "three posts" necessary for newcomers to activate the Personal Messaging (PM) facility here.    That way, others can make contact with you.

Many thanks Lu.

I hope I can eventually get direct contact  with JJGirl as I have a lot of information  that I can share. At the reunion I  used a family tree that had not been updated for about 50 years. While there we got it updated, and any mistakes corrected.  It is saved on a program  called Brothers Keeper, so it can be easily updated for the future.

Hi Tim,

I've sent you a message - looking forward to chatting...
