There is also a Evan Sargeant and a Eric Sargeant on the Delair School plaque. May be related to the Prugean brothers if its Sarjeant.
Any ideas?

I am trying to track down information on 3 Prugean's who went to Denlair School, Fordell, Whanganui, NZ. They may be Prujean. Henry Prugean, Albert Prugean and Fred Prugean. Their names were on a plaque that hung in the school and listed those that served in WWI and those that also died in WWI that went to the school.

Hello PAG1956

You haven't said just what sort of information you're wanting, but you may care to look through the older NZ newspapers ... there are numerous articles for the name PRUJEAN (not so many for the other spelling "PRUGEAN" ).

This may be the Albert you are seeking (PRUGEAN spelling ... although this may be a spelling error of the surname ?).

Added:   oops, the item didn't highlight name as intended ... but it's 5th paragraph down ... wedding of Albert (who has a brother named Fred. who acted as best man. )

Added 2 :    Looks like the groom's name was actually "John Albert Ernest PRUJEAN" (according to NZ mariage index).

Here is a link to Archives New Zealand which gives you the NZ Army WW1 file for "Henry Arthur PRUJEAN" (whose mother was Lilian Emily PRUJEAN .  John Albert Ernest PRUJEAN was also her son although mother's name is spelled as "Lillian - with two 'ells' " on the birth registration listing.)

Thank you again.

Hello again PAG1956

Have responded to your PM.   ;)

Given the large number of other names you are seeking information about ... and because this particular thread has to do with mainly PRUJEAN / SARGEANT ... it may be preferable that a new thread is created ?   ;)
If you'd like to contact our moderator to discuss this further - see click-on link at top of main page "Moderator:  spades " ... you can be sure of receiving the very best advice.  :)
