Henry & Elizabeth Hughes

[Satchwell]

I am looking for deaths of Henry Hughes born Scotland 1883 & believed to have died 1969 Petone, NZ: also his wife Elizabeth Nairn Hughes (nee Chalmers) born 1887 Scotland.  I believe they came to NZ via Liverpool   arriving Peone/Wellington 1925 along with their three children: Henry b 1919; William 1920 & Jean b 1923.  Their son William is buried in Levin cemetery.  The family lived firstly at 97 Jackson Street, Petone & then 40 Beach Street, Petone.

Thank you so much for such prompt replies Janette & Beg Clonrode.
I'd been looking at deaths in Hutt area, not Wellington city - silly me. 
The passenger list gives me much food for thought & more reseach to be done.
Much appreciated.
