julienz on 2013-09-18 08:55:51I am also a direct descendant in New Zealand. My ancestor is Richard and Sarah's daughter, Ann Elizabeth Burnett who married John Rogers in Nelson, New Zealand in 1868. Richard had 12 children with Sarah and two from a previous marriage. There were 9 Rogers children. My gr grandmother was Agnes Ellen Rogers, she had three children with George Campbell but they were never married. George died in a forestry accident in 1912 and Agnes married James Miles in 1914. My grandmother was one of the de facto children.

His son Thomas Roache Burnett is my great grand father, Percy Casper Burnett is my grand farther, Bevan George Burnett is my father. I still live in the Tasman area and visit Dovedale every now & then. The old family farm has only recently left the family after the death of Hugh Burnett, my uncle.
