Andrews Family. Waimea, Nelson.

[jericho]

Looking for anyone who may be able to help me with sorting out my Greatgrandparents family. My Greatgrandparents were Joseph Andrews born 1822 in Enstone Oxford,England, Joseph arrived in Nelson in 1842 on the 'Bolton'. His Wife Mary Dewar born c 1826,arrived in Nelson the following year on the 'Prince of Wales'.
Joseph and Mary married in 1844 in Waimea West.
 
I believe they may have had as many as 10 children,possibly more, most dying in early childhood.
I am trying to find out what happened to their children. Can anyone please help.

Constance Comfort Andrews 1845-1863
Prudence Emma  1867  m.William Dent
Constantine John  1849-1863
Virtue Cecily 1850-
Vincent Dewar 1852-1863
Joseph  Arthur  1856-1857
Henry Harry 1858- m.Polly Eden
James 1859-1919 m.Mary Jane Glover
William Alfred  1863-1956 m.Annie Painton
I believe there was a son with the initials R.G.

 
Any help would be very much appreciated.Thanks.

Hi. In my own research I came across the following details. I hope they will help. Unfortunately, there is no apparent connection to my family.

Hi Mike

I already have the details of Joseph and Mary Andrews deaths, she is infact buried in Hastings, but I do not have all the details of their children and you have certainly help me, with William Alfred all I had about him was his marriage and his daughter Annie name, so all the information about them is greatly accepted. My Greatgrandfather was James Andrews,and some how over the passage of time my Grandmother and her family seem to have lost contact with the entire Andrews family and no one in the family knew anything about them,until now. Your help is most appreciated. Now to find the other children.

regards

Joseph Andrews and Mary Dewar are my Great Great Great Grandparents.  I've been researching the andrews family history for a couple weeks, found out quite a bit.    Joseph and Mary had a son James Andrews, he married Mary Glover and had a daughter called Olive Bertha Andrews, she had a son called Alwyn, he had a daughter called Gail and I'm her son, Robert.  I live in New Zealand.  Love to hear from anybody who is related directly to Williams Andrews or Joseph Andrews.

Hi rob_roy


Welcome to Rootschat, James and Mary Andrews  are my great grandparents and their daughter Bertha is the sister of my nanna Dorothy Andrews. Would be really interested to get in touch with you to exchange information and renew the family connection. If you reply to this post twice more then  we will be able to private message each other to exchange emails.

thanks for replying to me.  It would be great to get in touch!  I've been researching the family for my grandad, Olive's son, Alwyn, he's 82.  I've found it really interesting, the Andrews line is quite well documented.  I was a bit concerned you may not get my messages being an old thread but this was a great result.

[rob_roy]

Are you in New Zealand by chance?
