1. THE NUMBERING SYSTEMS USED (i) The ID number at the start of the line indicates his order of descent from the initial couple "0 0--George HALL" and "sp-Betsy COOKE". (The "sp-" is for spouse.) For example their 3rd child is given ID number "3": 3 1--Henry HALL (1851) who married sp-Laura Elizabeth RATHBONE (1857). The 7th child of "3" Henry and spouse Laura is given ID "37": 37 2--Vera Elizabeth Rathbone HALL (1897-1971) and so on. (ii) The generation number precedes the name. For example the "1--" in 37 1--Vera Elizabeth Rathbone HALL indicates she is in the 3rd generation, counting the initial couple "0--George HALL" and "sp-Betsy COOKE" as the 1st generation. So to see who her siblings are one can either scan for adjacent "1--" or scan for 11, 12, .... (In this case the siblings stop at 18. ) (iii) To make this descendancy chart look like a conventional family tree, you need to put all the pages of the tree "2" together as one vertical sheet, then turn it on its side with the left margin at the top. Now draw horizontal lines between all siblings. The top line will join all the 2--. The next line will join all the 2--but be broken so as not to cover any 2--. So it is in 2 parts: the first is for 31 (one child so the horizontal line is just a point), & the second joins 41, 42, ...,48. The 3rd line joins all the 4--and breaks whenever a 2--or 3--occurs. The 4th line joins all the 5--and breaks whenever a 2--or 3--or 4--occurs. And so on. (iv) The children 2-- of Henry and Laura Hall have all passed away now. The grandchildren of Henry & Laura Hall, marked 4--are cousins (or siblings) to each other. Similarly if you are marked 5--(that is 5th generation from the initial couple) then you are a second cousin (or closer) to the other 5--. If you are marked 6--then you are a third cousin (or closer) to the other 6--. We now have 7 generations.

1877 marriage certificate of his son Henry [3] lists George as a hatter of
Upperthorpe. (Henry's death certificate gives George as a barrister!!)
There is an Upperthorpe near Scunthorpe in Lincolnshire. But this one is
almost surely
"UPPER-THORPE, hamlet in the parish of Sheffield and the township of
Nether-Hallam; 1 mile from Sheffield." (West Riding)

Next door we have the carpet shop, 16 Wellington Road South.

My guess is number 4 was one of these. Today, this site is occupied by the Post Sorting Office, which look like a 1950s building. ... Wellington Road South is carried over the river by means of a road bridge which is then continued, on the same level, by a series of arches. The bus station is accessed under these arches. Any buildings which once stood on this level would be either on streets called Daw Bank or Chestergate.

No other HALL are included nor any RATHBONE.] Their arrivals are also at http://0-www.aucklandcity.govt.nz.www.elgar.govt.nz BB found their arrival on the site for Auckland passenger arrivals 1838-1886 http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/dbtw-wpd/exec/dbtwpub.dll Full passenger lists are available from the newspaper "New Zealand Herald" records in person at the Auckland Research Center. A google web search for LEBU turned up their ship & what looks like 3 others: (1): http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/~dchamber/shipsl.htm http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/~dchamber/shipsl.htm#lebu AJHR 1879 Section H10 page 25 Return of Wrecks Date of Casualty : 16 Aug 1878 Name of Master : Henry Govan McKENZIE Age of Vessel : 10 years Rig : Barque Register Tonnage : 726 Number of Crew : 22 Number of Passengers : 14 Nature of Cargo : General Nature of Casualty : Loss of life Number of Lives Lost : 1 Place of Accident : Lat. 40o 57'S., Long. 59o 8'E Wind Direction : SW Wind Force : Heavy Finding of Court of Inquiry Casualty caused by sea coming on board and throwing captain against the winch. (His head was split open crown to nose.) My guess is that this WAS their ship, as it seems unlikely that another ship of the same name would arrive NZ 14 months later.

Laura died at her home at 79 Park Rd West, Auckland aged 61. (Listed as 71 Park Rd [Grafton] in website memorial of Harry [35].) Rates records confirmed Fern Nook as 79 Park Rd West [opposite Park Ave] not 71. It is now The School of Optometry/the School of Medicine, Auckland University Grafton Campus. Laura died of a long & painfull illness -KT. Death certificate: Laura Elizabeth HALL d 6.11.1918 at 79 Park Road, Auckland of cerebral haemorrhage 1 hours, daughter of Thomas RATHBONE and Elizabeth nee PASLEY; buried 8.11.1918 at Purewa by Rev WA KEAY? Anglican; b Sheffield, 38 years in NZ [so arrived c1880]; married at Sheffield at age 20 to Henry HALL; ages of issue: M 36 32 29 19 F 38 30 24 21; TJ McIVOR undertaker. The following info was found by Kay TRAYES at the Takapuna Library and Archives in 2002. 1 Dominion Rd,Devonport (Lebu) is a beautiful large character villa with huge old trees, on the corner of Dominion Rd (now Allenby Rd) and Derby St and opposite a park; is newly-clad and painted and is the original home. The records show the rates paid by Laura HALL.These 2 photos of Lebu taken 2002 are from Kay. One from the corner, the other from Dominion (now Allenby) Rd shows the gate with a space where it seems once was a plaque "Lebu".
Kay tells me in 2006 it is on the market for c$950,000! 7 Derby St next door on a more sloped section, where Vera and Rex lived is a smaller attractive pioneer style villa with a long verandah facing the road, only an off-road space for one car, AND the original stained-glass front door panel with the inscription - RIVELIN - not Riverlin - named after Rivelin Valley, Sheffield! On the door the print is upper case with the R and N large, sloping to smaller print with the E in the middle the smallest letter. Harry wrote to Vera that he was pleased to hear that she and Rex were living in the Derby St home. This home is included in the same rates as 1 Dominion Rd - they are Lots 22 and 23 Area 5- both have white picket fences. RIVELIN had a B&T sold sign out front. B&T office told us it sold before it was photographed for advertising... Henry also owned another property in Derby St and sold 60ft x 100ft to the Post Office.These 2 photos of Rivelin taken 2002 are from Kay.
Henry also owned 61 Albert Rd around the corner from the Derby St properties.
2 Beaconsfield St is on record as rates paid by Henry HALL, harder to
photograph due to a large wooden vine- covered fence in the front and a car in
the driveway but we took a photo anyway. It is a really lovely old rambling
home with big verandahs front and back and big windows, on a flat section.
Harry must have loved this home and Street to name his trench Beaconsfield.
Lovers Walk, Devonport is aptly named, an attractive, short, narrow, no exit
road leading to Cheltenham Beach lined with pohutukawas and renamed Arawa St.
1 Lovers Walk where Vera and Rex lived after
their marriage is a typical bay villa of the era. It has had an addition to
the top since they lived there. -Kay T 2002.
Of note too is rates paid by Henry HALL for 17 Cheltenham Tce now Oxford Tce.
This property is opposite Cheltenham Beach.
All these name changes of roads ! All those properties owned by the HALLs !
Rates Records show Henry HALL owned a dwelling on the corner of Vauxhall Tce
and Vauxhall Rd occupied by Geo BRAMLEY (note spelling no 'b'- lots of spelling
errors occur in records- should be BRAMBLEY). -Kay T 2002.
Laura's death notice states that her brother Thomas H. RATHBONE lived at
Kingsland, Auckland. www.purewa.co.nz gives

He served in GR Squadrons 1,2,3,4,9 and Transport Squadrons 40 and 41. He was one of the Airforce team that won the Auckland Rugby Premiership in the Gallaher Shield final: see photo 13.10.1945 (NZH or Weekly News?). In 1946 he returned to work for C and E Co. He was invested with his DFC at Government House, Auckland on 19.5.1949. He did a B.Comm. He became financial adviser for the MYERS family, and NZ Wine and Spirits, and Commercial Manager for Campbell and Ehrenfried. They bought a farm in Kaipara Harbour in 1977. They have many family photos. He published his memoirs in 1993 in a volume "VICTOR VICTOR" (113 pp including 63 pp of text.) I have sent copies to the Takapuna, Auckland Central and National Libraries. Let Vic's family or me know if you want a copy and we'll see what we can arrange. The NZ Womens Weekly for 23.2.1959 contains an article on his family "So the dolls came too" with 5 photos and one of their boats. In 1980 he was chief organiser of Takapuna Grammar's 50th Jubilee. A member of the Albion Lodge No 45 until 1985. He bought a 26 foot mulletboat yacht, the Starlight. They sailed to Kawau Island where Kristan and Andrew have a bach: see NZH? 26.10.1991. The photos under 34* are from Vic's collection. From Jan's eulogy: Dad left school at 15, to join Campbell and Ehrenfried, a wine and spirits and hotel management company, with whom Dad spent his entire working life. In his usual modest manner, Dad reports that: "I only got the job because of a very good reference from Mr Colin LITTLEJOHN, then headmaster of TGS who said: Young TRAYES, though diminutive in stature, is the soul of honour and I can thoroughly recommend him". I was so impressed with this eulogy that I really tried to be that way." Dad started as an office boy on 15/- ($1.50) a week. "I was two years as office boy and held the record of Strand Arcade to the Post office to collect the mail and back in 5 minutes!" As you all know, Dad only ever had one speed - flat out! Between 1935 and 1940 Dad completed his professional accounting qualifications part-time at ATI, while still working at Campbell and Ehrenried. In his spare time he played tennis, rugby, sailed boats and was a member of the rowing club. By the look of his photos, he also did lots of socialising, fishing and boating. With the outbreak of war in 1939, Dad enrolled in the army for training, but then decided the airforce had more appeal... Although he never made a big deal of it, Dad did have one very close shave after being hit in the wing by anti-aircraft fire. He flew many miles on one engine using the uplift from the cumulous clouds to maintain stability and ultimately make a safe landing. For this he was awarded the DFC, and although he would be really embarrassed by this, we would like to read part of his DFC citation that was sent to his father in 1945: "Exceptional qualities of skill, courage and determination have been displayed by Flight Lieutenant TRAYES, in the course of three tours of operation in the Pacific, during which he completed 104 operational missions... When one motor was out, he flew his damaged aircraft 180 miles across the sea to friendly territory, landing successfully without further damage on a half-completed air strip. He has throughout distinguished himself by his personal bravery and intense devotion to duty in the face oft he enemy." Dad, of course saw it differently. As he said in his log book, it wasn't about skill. It was "actually, if not certainly, a miracle from the good Lord that we made it safely back". In fact, he did not even include the citation in his memoirs, such is his humility. After the war, Dad returned to his old job and completed a BCom at Auckland University. He continued to play rugby for North Shore and the Services. More significantly for us, he became closely involved with the TGS Ex Pupils Association, where he was Secretary and then President. Because of Dad's connections in the hospitality industry he was able to arrange great venues for ex pupils' trips, and it was on one of these that he met Mum. "At almost over the hill at 27 or 28, I found my perfect girl... she of course realized I wasn't the perfect man, but I'd do." In February, 1940, Dad proposed to Mum from his hospital bed, where he was recovering from a rugby injury and in the original St Peters ... Dad was never happier than when he was on or in the sea. He always felt you should visit a beach every day if you could, and mostly he did. Like everything else, Dad approached a swim at full speed, charging down the beach, crashing in to the waves, and heading for Rangitoto with thrashing arms and feet. For Dad, boating was one of life's great gifts. He built his first boat when he was 18, and he just kept right on building them. Dad built us kayaks, and home-made water skis (or shees, as he call them). We had home-built runabouts and home made life jackets which would have taken us straight to the bottom if we had ever been tossed into the drink. We had banana boats and rubber duckies. And the pièce de resistance: a 26ft mullet boat, called STARLIGHT... Mum and Dad built their house at the beginning of their married life, helped by Poppa TRAYES, a stone mason, and Puppa CADNESS, a plumber. It was the only house they ever lived in. It was Dad's pride and joy and he never tired of the gardens or the lovely view of Rangitoto... One of Dad's more ambitious do-it yourself efforts, was his project to link the back garden down the sheer cliff to the beach 100 feet below. His brilliant idea was to acquire a ladder from the Ponsonby fire station... These activities were many, and as well as his day job, included tutoring at AIT, and membership of the Wakatere Boating Club, the North Shore Rugby Club, the Waitemata Golf Club, the Brevet Club, vestry membership and warden at this church, auditing work for many organizations, to name but a few. In 1977, he chaired the committee which organised the TGS 50th jubilee celebrations... His funeral service was held at St Peter's Anglican Church, Killarney St, Takapuna on October 20th, 2008. Jan has kindly sent me his Service - stored as VicTRAYESservice.pdf & a tribute from his grandchildren - stored as GrandiesTribute.doc NOTE Vic flew twice in April 1942 with a close cousin Pilot Officer Terence O. HALL at Wigram. HOW IS THIS MYSTERY COUSIN RELATED? He seems unlikely to be a son of 48 Leslie HALL, so would have to be the son of an unknown brother of 4 Henry HALL that also emigrated to New Zealand. His war record at the Defence Dept may hold the clue!

He was barracked in Victoria then went to defend Darwin. He was debunked in 1945, coming out ill. But it took years for his widow to get a war pension. Morva's niece Graeme REES-JONES met Les in Melbourne at the end of WW2, & called Les Pop after Popeye, to distinguish him from Morva's brother Les. After Geoff was born, Graeme came to live with them in Camberwell. Graeme did the bookwork & found that Les had been swindled of a large sum of money by 2 colleagues. When Geoff was 15 he & his dad rebuilt a 1947 Morris Minor together. Les had a series of businesses. He sold Vauxhalls in Seymour. He was hospitalized several times.

In 2005 there are no KINDER in Walthamstow.
freebmd gives a huge no. of possible chn - but does not give parents.
It gives no chn in West Ham district, where their 1906 m was registered
- presumably because they have not been enteered yet, as the m does not show
there.

1916: From harry_to_vera_txt: Monday August 14th 1916 8am.
I am now in CODFORD on Salisbury Plains. Uncle is a real good chap and Dad's
double in profile only much smaller." - That this is John becomes clear from
Harry's entry for Thursday 24th August 1916 8.30am.
His address on p -2 of Harry's diary was
Uncle Jack: Mr John James HALL, 99 Drayton Gardens, S. Kensington, London SW
There is also an entry in Harry's WW1 diary:
"Grandparents & Gt.Gd. parents' graves (on Mum's side), Met AUNTS RUTH, MAUD,
COUSINS MAGGIE & UNCLE JACK's two lads. Saw bomb effects."
This Uncle Jack does not look like his mother's brother

Geoff [381] has photos by? NT BACON on the Thames?: 1 of Jack in uniform,
another of Jack & wife & Harry [35].

very dear brother & family, I am always pleased to hear from you. Your letters
are so interesting to me. I have no news I am am? am form? .. family well. We
are on the eve of another winter & your prediction of 1914, viz The war would
last 5 years, is coming true. The horrors of it all is everpresent. No time to

These are deposited at LDS but they are in BOOK form and so they will
not supply to local centres...surname indexes only and not full transcriptions.
We can supply all titles mail order - see the web site - bookshop pages.
Had the name been very unusual, I could have done a search but there
will be too many HALL entries to make this viable. I can only suggest you
employ a local researcher and I attach some addresses below:

*YORKSHIRE has 3 Ridings:
Riding meant 'third' as in a fraction of one third, so by definition you
cannot have four of them!
They are geographical divisions of Yorkshire, and I suspect it was because
of old history and the fact that it is such a large county. The old 'county
town' of the North Riding was Northallerton, of the East Riding I think
Beverley and Wakefield for the West Riding. Interesting to see that all
three places are now so much smaller than several of the modern cities in
the county. -Judith Pitchforth, Hon Secretary, Sheffield and District FHS

14.2.2 OLD SHEFFIELD A fascinating site for OLD Sheffield is http://mtx.net.au/~exy/family_history_material.htmlhttp://www.old-maps.co.uk/ For example clicking there on Yorkshire and then Sheffield gave this map c1855. (.3 mgbytes) To get Upperthorpe I was advised to click on Yorkshire then Walkley, then click on the S arrow at top R to get map to the S. At the top R you can read Philadelphia, and below that the inverted L of the infirmary. W of that is Portland Place on Upperthorpe Rd, and W again you can see "Upperthorpe" (and "Upperthorpe cottages" above it to the R) running below the letters LLA in NETHER HALLAM across the top. Harder to read below and L of the "Upp" is "UPPERTHORPE ROAD" running SW to NE crossing the word "Upperthorpe" at the "h". The road runs left into a T which is "Heavy Gate Road" which runs NW thru the E and R in NETHER. Just above the T is Steel Bank and just below Springvale and going S, Prospect Villa, then Prospect House and then Crooke's Moor crossing the road S and parallel to Upperthorpe Rd called "Crooke's Moor Road". To the R of the Infirmary is St Phillip's on the N side of "Infirmary Road", not far SW of the River. As one moves E and S from there the city gets denser. If one clicks on the map to the R one finds the Workhouse just SW of the river, which bends in a U. On the N side of the upper arm of the U as it bends horizontal is the Midland Railway Station... Again the map is c1855. (.3 mgbytes)
