Henry John Morgan: London to Victoria to Christchurch

[Lucy2]

Sorry, I didn't meant to ignore your question, no I don't have his death certificate.

That's okay  .

Just that it's a helpful document to have in terms of verifying information gathered from other sources.  [If you do decide to purchase from NZ BDM - cost about $20.40 - it's preferable to order the printout (registry copy) which tends to give more info (than a certificate which is a transcription and open to error). ]

I think next step should be to ascertain what became of Caroline Frances MORGAN (wife).   

Will see what I can find.

If 1881 census info is correct for Elizabeth J. FITZER - she was residing in the Hackney area - then she may well have met up with Henry John MORGAN in that location ?
Although the children of Henry John and Caroline Frances MORGAN were baptised in Co. Essex, it's possible HJM returned to Hackney or vicinity of ?

It's something I have been wanting to get, for verification purposes, but I've recently finished up my degree and being a poor student meant even $20 to non essentials was too much. I'm always very skeptical of online information, so to have something "in my hand" would be great. I think that will be one of the first things I treat myself to once I go back to work properly in a few weeks (how sad is that, what a treat! haha)

Understand completely (the poor student thing),  and you deserve more worthy rewards.
The death record will always be there, so leave it's purchase for the future.   

I initially thought chasing up the name MORGAN might prove bothersome, but we're on a bit of a "roll" now ... and along with the spade work you've already done, things are coming together quite nicely.

Have news about Caroline F. MORGAN ... see next posting >
