George Herbert MAJOR died 1936 aged 54 years.

Interestingly there is a divorce file held @ Christchurch Archives for a Herbert George Major TULL, (1953), with marriage certificate & photograph.

Also for this man, of Kaiapoi, probate (1975).

A family connection?

Oops bad hair day, I doubled up ;D

This is the records of James Henry Lascelles Corrigans family.  Might be a little help?

I have been looking for Margaret Major born 1868 New Zealand, daughter of William and Fanny Major.


Mmm ... maybe you shouldn't discount this marriage ?

Maggie MAJOR - James STEVENSON -- 1890

 ;)   ... just wondered if there might be school records for children of Fanny and William MAJOR (of Kaiapoi)  ??

I see the daughter Fanny (b. 1875) is mentioned as a prizewinner at a school breakup (Kaiapoi area).
