Hi, I also have info on the other 2 Ebdons - William died on 13 June, 1889 at Pipitea St, Wellington and Simon died 5th Feb 1870 at a hospital in Melbourne, Australia. On Williams'marriage certificate (he was married to Elizabeth Cecilia Overton), his father's name is down as Joyerle - I think it was probably his Devon way of pronouncing Joel but the registrar got it mixed up. Elizabeth married Robert Neill from Edinburgh. They settled in Wainuiomata and had many children. 2 of their daughters married Collis brothers - another Wainuiomata family. My husband is descended from Elizabeth and Robert's daughter Clara.
