Hi John

Sorry for taking so long in answering your email.
The information I have about William Robert Emms comes from his Death certificate which states as follows:

William Robert Emms was born in Wells, Norfolk, England and was 67 years old when he died on 16th May 1901 in Nelson. New Zealand.  He had spent 38 years in New Zealand.
I also have copies of birth records of some of his 8 children which also states Wells, Norfolk.

I also have some information about Frank Bond Emms from Birmingham & Sarah Lucy Towler from Eastham.

I hope this helps.

Hello Susie

How sure are you about the date and place of birth of your William Emms, I am interested in this line as I have traced my Emms line back to Wells around this time period but I have not been able to find your William on any records I have looked at so far, I can give you the information I have on my other Emms family members in the wells area, the only William I have found is the William mentioned b1836. I know the records can be confusing but it would be nice to share any info that could help us both in our research.

Hi Julienne

The information I have about Frank Bond Emms & Sarah Lucy Towler is a tree I did about ten years ago.  Unfortunately I do not have it on my computer.

I have Frank's father as Edward Emms - a needle Manufacturer. No mother's name.

Frank Bond Emms B. 27.11.1866 at Birmingham, England and he D. 3.11.1937 Age 71 in Gisborne. NZ.  He married on 4.10.1896 at Eastham, England to Sarah Lucy Towler.  She was B. 1874 Eastham, England and D. 1945-6 at Gisborne. NZ
They had 5 children.  2 children died in England.  Herbert Walter & Twins Frederick Stanley & Donald Arthur came to NZ. I hope this helps.
