Gwendoyln in New Zealand Electoral Rolls

The NZ Electoral Rolls have recently become available to me through Ancestry.com.

1900 - Henry Colin and Gwendolyn Dunlop at Makaraka, East Cape, Waiapu. Farmer.
1905-1906 - Henry Colin and Gwendolyn Dunlop at Waimata, East Cape, Waiapu. Farmer.
1911 - Henry Colin Dunlop, alone, at Waiau, Hauiti, Bay of Plenty. Shepherd.

This supports the other sketchy information on Gwendolyn's departure from NZ.

"Our Gwen" Again

As the NLA slowly digitises the Courier Mail, new stuff pops up. Here's Gwen's funeral notice. It appears that she was living at Caloundra before her death. The cut off edge of the clipping is an artifact of the NLA's scanning process, not my clumsy manipulation.

 Courier Mail, Friday 18 September 1953

Update

I have been out of action for a while - nasty fever of unknown pathology put me in hospital for a bit, and slowed me down for a while longer. At least it wasn't a return of the 'orrible lymphoma.

Paul reports that he has consolidated his membership of the Vasco Club by obtaining a postcard from the "Boarding House" series. He has also ventured in the very special world of postcard collecters, as have I in the past few days. (From my assorted family postcards, I could be a little better off financially than I am currently, but they are worth more to me as family items.)

During my period of reduced activity, NLA Trove newspapers website has come out of beta, and is quite a handy tool for researching family matters and things like Mr Blogg and Mr Bent. Still can't find an image of that offending sauce advertisement, however.

Argus Sauce

Thanks to Paul, we now have a card advertising Mr Blogg's estimable sauce.
