They left England and travelled to South Africa where Alberta May was born in 1892 then came to New Zealand and settled to have their remaining family. Arthur Harris Linsell Sugden was Born in 1901 in Geraldene Christchurch he is my Grandfather.

Hi Lisa,

Yes we did email about a year ago. I have had some spare time so have been busy doing further research. I saw Lynn Wilson in Hawkes Bay and we recussed the connection. Will be travelling to London next year and hopefully will contact  some family members. Are you still in contact with Phil?  I pressume he lives there.

Kind Regards Caroline

Hi no never heard from him again. Didn't seem to want to stay in contact. Are you talking about Lyndon? He died about 4 years ago as did my mum from Motor Neurons Disease.

Hi Lisa, Lynn was Lydons ex wife. My mum Mary née Sugden has been life long friends with Lynn and her family. Lyndon,Lynn, Rachel,Reuben and Brendon lived next to us in Havelock North growing up. Lyndon use to park his helicopter on our farm and we went for frequent joy rides! He was a great pilot. Mum went to His funeral of coarse. So sorry to hear of your mothers death. Who were your grandparents and parents? Would love to catch up if your ever in Auckland to compare notes if you would like at some stage.

Kind Regards Caroline

Lyndon and mum where great support to each other as they both had the same disease at the same time they were first cousins. My grandfather Edward (Mums father) and Lyndon's mother Margaret where brother and sister and there was Joan also. Pop (Edward) and Joan were twins. Gladys Sugden, Albert and Anne's oldest child was their mother. I don't recall ever meeting Lyndon's wife or any of his family.
