Mystery Bitchenor on the "City of Rome."

Hi there!

Seems I have to post 3 messages before I can send a personal message.

I noticed that the Bradley side had quite a lot of research done under the family thread of Nadler in Sedgeley.

With regards to the New Zealand line of the Bitchener family, I am a great grandson of John Bitchener and can provide quite a lot of information if you're interested.

Hi,
John Bitchenor's father - Alfred Bitchenor (1847) was the brother of my great grandfather Henry Bitchenor. I received a lot of help in 2007 from the Information Officer in Waimate re John Bitchenor's political career but would be very interested in any information you have on the Bitchenor family in New Zealand. Thank you.

Thank you so much for being in contact and for offering more detailed New Zealand related information than we currently have. As you can tell from this thread I am also the great grandchild of Albert's brother Henry and I'm in regular contact with the previous poster. We would both welcome information but it's probably easiest if we exchange with you via personal message. Post a couple more times and your Rootschat personal mail will be available.

Also I have a photograph of Henry Bitchenor in old age which you might like to see and I'm curious about any family resemblance to Albert.

Happy New Year.

May have been in error sending a message to Hughes for more Albert Bitchenor information who settled south of Christchurch NZ. So here is another post. Thanks so much for responding.
Always admired a man (Albert) who went half way round the world for a better life, a widower with three small children. Any info would be appreciated.
