There happens to be a rather comprehensive one name study of Harris families in New Zealand compiled and maintained by Leonard Harris.

Your family is included.  You may like to contact him for access to this information on his web pages.

Hi,

If you have a sub to A$y you will be able to follow Robert Hugh Harris from the NZ 1853-1981 Electoral Rolls.   He is first showing on the 1914 E/R for the Bay of Islands.


Cheers

Thanks kiwi. I have a subscription &, based on those, have been consulting a lot with Google Maps to try to get a lay of the land.  ;) ;D

That's very generous of you Janette. Thank you.

The divorce may be quite telling & I really look forward to that. I anticipate that the probate won't mention the former wife & 1st daughter. (The trees I've seen on-line don't mention the first marriage.)

Many thanks once again.

The divorce files are really interesting .... the family washing on the line .... ones that Janette has got for me in the past have been really hair-raising ;D   Been lucky with photos as well.

Cheers
