Hi Lindsay

Both NZ & OZ have been through a very rough time lately, my wife and I have been on month long separate tours of both countries. We were looking at our photographs taken from the spire of Christchurch Cathedral yesterday, it is awful to realise the spire has gone from the beautiful church.

My main area of research is the Marfell family and there are hundreds in both NZ & OZ. I met up with my main Australian contact in Perth and my wife & I had a wonderful day with her. Whilst I have met up with a New Zealand contact, this was when she was visiting the Forest of Dean, unfortunately the tour of NZ we were on didn't go to her area.

You might not realise that there is a Marfell school and Marfell Beach in New Zealand :
