On NZ BMD's  https://www.bdmhistoricalrecords.dia.govt.nz/Home/

Born to an Elizabeth and Denis Cyril Cronin

1899/8820 Larisa Jane

1902/1377 John Thomas

1903/18824 Daisy Elizabeth

1904/13057 Denis Cyril

1907/20159 Roy.


Hi again Jean

Noting that the above (highlighted) birth, shows on the BDM index as "Larise Jane" --- not as "Larisa Jane" as given in the earlier posting.

I mention this, because I there is the following death on BDM.

I think that "Larise Jane CRONIN" may very well be the child "Doris Jane CRONIN",  shown as dying in 1902.   ???   The age certainly fits.

NZ Death Index

1902 /

CRONIN - Doris Jane - aged 3 years


Died:  1 December 1902  (Place of event not given on index)

Parents names of course are not shown on the death index, but maybe there is a cemetery record or headstone inscription which might help solve the "mystery" ?

Re: the above.     Often names get mistranscribed (and we're forever finding lots of "oddities" on this online BDM.   ::)  :D)

I have some other look-ups to do this week, so I'll check the microfiche Birth Index to see how the christian names for these CRONIN children, have been recorded.

There is a Denis Cronin who evidently lived in the Wanganui area for many years.
Read about him here.

probably nothing to do with your family but makes interesting reading.

Hello jean,

Just go to http://archway.archives.govt.nz/ and do a simple search for Denis Cronin.
There are five records, the probate is the 1943 one.
Some of the others may be of interest as well.
regards

If You are wanting to find further information for Daisy Elizabeth MILLER, then Archives New Zealand at Auckland, hold a Probate record for her.   The file should contain a copy of her will, in which you will possibly find names of her children (or other family members).

Archives NZ (Auckland) also have a probate file for >>

MILLER - Harold John - Mt. Albert - Retired - 1978

I suspect this is the husband of Daisy Elizabeth (only one death found on NZ online index for a "Harold John MILLER").

There is a cremation record for him at Waikumete (Auck.).

Daisy Elizabeth MILLER is not at same cemetery :

Will see if I can find her elsewhere.
