Sutherlands in Christchurch 1860 +?

[Tiffaney]

Has anyone Sutherlands amongst their ancestors who came from Parish of Latheron, Caithness 1860 + who lived in Christchurch please?

I have a Christina who married in June 1868 from the home of a Mr Sutherland South Town Belt Christchurch.  How on earth do I find what other members of the Sutherlands who lived at that address. If only we had had census's...did only the electoral rolls give one a rough idea.

Really need to find out the members of this Sutherland family.  Believe the parents in Latheron were a William & Janet Sutherland MS Sinclair.

Back now to NZ queries.

Plse post anything you have....am soooo close, to hopefully breaking down my long time brick wall, am on tenderhooks, but must find more facts abt Sutherlands living in Christchurch.

Many thanks in advance for all who kindly help me.

Have you checked newspaper transcriptions
http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~ashleigh/

Best way to follow families other than electoral rolls are street directories
Are you near a main library?
to get an idea of whats available search at NZSG ,ibrary online
http://www.genealogy.org.nz/Search_the_Library_219.aspx
click on: advanced
In shelf location enter: NZ.DIR look at all dates and directries and see what times periods there are
If you are in Auckland you can go to library or ask CHCH library for a lookup or someone who can go in

Hi Tiffaney,

Have you ever searched the card index of early baptisms, marriages and burials at ChCh Library for your Sutherlands?
I can have a look for you next week if you haven't.

Hello Stephanie,

Would be really pleased if you could look up marriages and burials..will give you what I have already so you aren't doubling up.

I have a death cert for Catherine Sutherland who d: ChCH 1909.  Parents: Wm Sutherland & Janet Sinclair buried Addington Cemetery

1.  Ann Sutherland b: 1823 Latheron
2. John Sutherland
3. Catherine Sutherland b: 1827 (have death cert above)
4.  Helen Sutherland  b: 7 Jun 1829 m: Wm Sinclair 14 Feb 1851 Latheron

7.  Elizabeth Sutherland b: 1837
8. Williamina Sutherland b:1839
9.  James Sutherland b: 1841

-----
Believe 5. Archibald Cook Sutherland died age 40 in hospital due to a fall from scaffolding on a school building at Brookside where he worked for Mr. Reese.#
# refer to yesterdays posting re  Accident & Smellie/Sutherland marriage.

Wondering if he was living at Brookside at the time of the accident with his family as that was where Christina Sutherland who m: John McLauchlan (farmer) in ChCh June 1868 from the house of Mr Sutherland, was living.

Hope I haven't confused you.

Your time & interest are very much appreciated Stephanie..thankyou

Tiffaney

ps:  Nearly forgot some of the family were buried in Addington cemetery.
Will ring Ellesmere HS. tomorrow to see if I can find out more.
