(Father) David Warby with sons (left-right) Alex Stanley Warby, Dylan James Warby , Thomas Warby & Joshua Warby

FOR YOU ALEX:  This page SERVICE RECORDS (click on blue link to see) has been added especially for you Alex Stanley Warby (on left in the above photograph) because you asked me about how many of your relatives had fought in the Wars. This will be a list of those who fought in the wars. Those who died in the Wars can still be found on our families  ROLL OF HONOUR page. I shall add the names as I find them for you. Hope you are proud of them. This will take a long time to fill out as there are many names to be added. I have also added a MILITARY PHOTO ALBUM.


I have been looking into your 'HORE & KIRWAN' family history for you. You might like to cut & paste the link below into your google search. This link relates to your 5x Great Uncle Thomas Edward Kirwan. He was in the Boer War and got medals for his service. This picture shows the ship the 'Orient' that he sailed on and he would have been one of the soldiers in the picture most probably.


The 'Orient' with the 5th Australian Light Horse Unit embarking on the 15th February 1901. This included Private Thomas Edward Kirwan

The site also lists his name. His sister Mary 'Mollie' Kirwan is your 4x Great Grandmother who married John Hore. They had a son John Hore who married Henrietta 'Hetta' Walker (your 3x Great Grandparents). They had a son Basil Wallace Hore who married and Elsie (your 2x Great grandparents). They had a son Basil Stanley Hore who married Gloria (your Great Grandparents). They had Jennifer 'Jenny' Hore your grandmother.

FAMILY TREE UPDATES

INDIVIDUAL FAMILY HISTORIES:  I am currently constructing short histories on various families. If anyone can add, or wishes to have added, information they have on the families listed below please email me jowarby@bigpond.net.au so that I am able to include your inforamtion in time for the next update.

SHIPS & PASSENGER LISTS: I have transcribed a seventy two verse poem written by John Winter on his voyage out to New Zealand in 1874 called 'VOYAGE OF THE CONFLICT'. This gives us a wonderful insight in a voyage of that era and also of the feelings of those who made the journey. This poem was once a mystery ... but we now know that it was 'our' John Winter who wrote is and we can be very proud of him & his legacy to us.

Now listed are two passenger ships. The '
CONFLICT' and the 'ANN WILSON'. Along with the names of those listed in this site are Newspaper reports of the time, a Passenger Contract Ticket and Passenger Lists. To read about the voyage of the Ann Wilson makes you understand the hardship our ancestors endured to reach the land that became their 'home'. Sadly we lost a little girl called 'Sophia Hooper' on this voyage. It is to her parents, John and Rebecca Hooper & to John and Sarah Winter that I must pay homeage to for being proudly a New Zealander at heart.

TACON FAMILY TREE has been added along with the TACON FAMILY CENSUS RECORDS
