I always thought that Alice Muriel Irwin and Ethel Irwin were sisters but now I don't know what to think as I just been given a letter written by Arthur Bevan Wheeler who talks about visiting his Aunt Ethel who married Auber Bruno Keyes.
Everything that he has mentioned in his letter has proved to be correct except Ethel.
I have Alice Muriel Irwin and Auber Bruno Keyes marriage print out from NZ BDM so now I am thinking like mentioned on this post that Alice Muriel Irwin was known as Ethel, however I have a approx. birth year of 1896 for Ethel and another child Ada Irwin 1906 for the life of me I cannot find any record of were these two names and dates came from. :o
Keyes/Keys, Lowry, Currie, Duck, Smith, Jacentho/Jecentho,

Hello Della, I see you are looking for Thomas Chapman and family from Ohaupo. This is my family, they did'nt just have three sons they also had three daughters Frances Fanny Chapman who married Charles Karl, who are my great great grandparents and she also had 2 other sisters Susanna Chapman and Emily Chapman.  I don't understand why the news paper of that time would just mention the 3 sons unless it was because the daughters were already married.  I am very interested in hearing why you were wanting to find this family. Please contact me.  Telefunu
