Hi Lu,
Thanks for all your help, we have recently discovered that Katie and her three brothers all came to NZ as part of the Flock House trainee farming scheme for Children of British seamen as they lost their father in WWI when the boat he was a pilot on hit a german mine and sunk. I had traced them all to the Bay of Islands thanks to 1935 census and then they disperse from there. I know the others have had family whom I hope to get in contact with and was hoping maybe Katie had a family of her own also. Thanks again for all the information you've been incredibly helpful.
Jo

At least one of Buckley Calvert ROCKELL's sons is still alive. Will PM Jo the details.

Not sure about Mona and Stuart GANE's family though.

Have quite a lot of information on the ROCKELL and ROCKEL lines.
