Hi George

At ancestry.com there are also trees for the family of Ivy (Dolly) BAILEY (Parents:  Walter BAILEY and Sara Ann BROOKS.)

A cautionary word though   :   Just because these trees are presented online, it doesn't mean that the information contained therein, is correct.   Many of them don't quote the sources of their information ... and a lot too, are simply copied from other people's trees.    Of course there's no harm in viewing them and taking notes (or better still, contacting the tree owners), but it is important to be able to validate information with records from official sources.

That is a good point. It is very easy to take things at face value on the internet.  Always good to see information confirmed in more than one place. I only just had a suspicion about who one of my g.g.g.grandfathers was confirmed by seeing another tree which had a daughter of his marrying a Kipling and I knew already that there were Kipling distant cousins in the family.

Interested in your Wickham research.George and Jane(Jenny)  Dale formerly Andersen came to NZ with two oldest boys.Charles was reputed to be Janes son but not Charles. Another sibling was
Albert (Darkie)Wickham who m Margaret Frances Wren .they had a number of chn the youngest of whom was Morea Joyce Elizabeth Wickham born when her mother was in her forties.Joyce m Geoffrey Thomas  and I am their daughter Dennise.
I have lots of stuff and bits and pieces on most of the lines.
I think I remember meeting Dolly in Rotorua? many years ago.
Was there a FuzzBuzz Nesbit connected.
Any specific questions I can help you with ??

Hi Dennise, it is good to hear from you. The moderator emailed me your email address, so I will write to you soon. I am interested about Jane Dale being formerly 'Andersen'. Was she married before marrying George Wickham snr? I have some records of her father, Jesse Dale's army service.
I wonder if 'FuzzBuzz Nesbit' could be my grandfather, Arnold Rex Nisbet, he always had a crew-cut. He was actually really a Wickham, but his birth certificate says Bailey, as he was born to Dolly before she married George Wickham jnr. He was given to her married sister Constance (who was married to Edgar Nisbet) and then George and Dolly after getting married, 'adopted' him back!

Who were George and Dollys chn.Trevor??
Am away at lake at present but will look stuff up when I get home.
Fuzz Buzz was a female with a lot of curly hair.
Not sure if Jane was m twice.
Where do you fit in the family.
Good photo on ancestry posted by someone I gave a copy of photo to.

Yes, Trevor was one of the children, also Gwen, Syd, Ron and as I mentioned, my grandfather Arnold Rex, who was born in December 1908, before George and Dolly were married. I will email you the other details so as not to mention names of living people.
