I was born in Rangiora, North Canterbury, N.Z. but now live in Melbourne, Australia. I married a beautiful women from Chile and we have put our roots down in Melbourne and have a family. I am semi-retired and I am putting together some Family Trees. Mum's side Dad's side etc. In the process I have been able to match some people and put them with each other. It's been a very rewarding process and I have learnt a lot, particularly how tough it was in the 1800's and early 1900's. One of my learnings is how great the volunteers are who take images of the Head Stones. Without them we would know nothing. Thank you so much....
