Hi

  Where did your father work in New Zealand ?

Hi Muss. Wet as here in Sydney, so staying close 2 unit (Darling Harbour) rather than drive on unknown roads. He worked for the Mangahao Power Station at Shannon. Ref has his name as Robert W. Stevens  1922-23. Probably due to my lack of knowledge but I couldn't backtrack him to Australia and a friend who had a go found the one Robert who left Sydney for Wellington in 1921. Ta Betty

Didn't think I'd look forward to getting home to a computer so much. Lol Still a week to go. I want you to know I'm really appreciating the time, the effort and the cuppas you are putting in to the searches. Betty

Other than hearsay, you have nothing to truly place Robert in Australia until his shipping departure to NZ in 1921. No documented evidence.

So, as another straw for clutching, I offer this.

Unfortunately sparret we think that straw is too short to hold.  But, and again I will be glad to get home to a computer, I'd like to give some further attention to a Robert C Stevens, married to Orellia, father of Rita. To see how far back that Robert can be traced to. Às  he could be closer to the age. Thank you so much x Betty
