Hi Pip,
Thought I would touch base.My name is Rex Neary and my wife is Robyn nee Jensen ( Danish ).
Her father was one of ten children born in Norsewood. His name was Wilfred Axel Vernon Jensen and is buried in Pukekohe East.
His father was Axel (Thorval)?Thard? Jensen married Ada Magnusen.
Arrived in NZ via Fritz Reuter.Buried in Norsewood.
Parents were Chritian Jensen & Christina Gydine nee Mortensen.Also buried in Norsewood.
My father's sister Mona McElwain Nearymarried John Svenson,His father was also John and mother was C Person one of the early Swedish settlers & founders of Norsewood(the 70 Mile Bush District).
There was a substantial write up in the Manawatu Evening Standard quoting her reminiscences.Which I have a copy of undated but could be deduced.I also have a few photos.
Kind Regards,
Rex.
