Dear Eunice
Thankyou so much for your reply
The only information I have is as follows
William Pocock B1809 Surrey England, Died 27Nov 1883 ChCh NZ
married Catherine Carey Born 1815 Died 1879
William was so disgusted with his two brothers quarrelling over the family property (dont know brothers names) he emigrated to Launceston Tasmania. Never spoke to family again and burnt all letters from them unopened.
He had three? children in England
Willaim born 1843 Surrey - died 13 Sept 1920 Ashburton NZ
George Bron 1st Jan 1845 Surrey Eng Died 18 Sept 1922
Mary or Maria or Matilda born 1848
George came onto gold rush in Dunstan NZ from Tasmania in 1861
Went back again and got his brother William out.
Once they all were in NZ we are okay with information.
However dont have any info on First William born 1809,
who his family were etc as he wouldnt speak of them!!
We would appreciate any help you could give. Can we help you with anything for yourself??
Kind regards
