Nellie Bluett was my great grandmother. She married Alfred Herbert Oliphant Stewar. My grandmother was Ellen Oliphant [also known as Putahi]. Please contact me. Are you based in New Zealand? Cheers, Merle Bean

Hi Meryl,
Did you get my last message? It was just amazing to get yours !!
Just a re-cap in case.
My grandfather was Alfred Herbert Oliphant Stewart.
I know now that he married Nellie Bluett when they were both quite young, but have no other information.
Alfred then re- married Sarah Ellen Callaghan,( MY grandmother),and they had 5 children.
My father was the youngest and was named after his father.
Would love to swap info.
I live on the North Shore In Auckland. I look forward to a reply soon.
Cheers,
Jenny

Hi there Meryl,
I may have sent you part of a message by mistake, so will start again.

I just can't wait to meet you and share some of our wonderful family history !!

My sister lives in Epsom, so maybe we can meet up at her place when you come to Auckland.

Maybe you will be up here soon, now that the census has been posponed.
So many questions to ask !! I am SO excited !!

My cousin Davis who is Edna's son said to say sorry he did not answer your email, but would also love to catchup also.

Well past my bed time. Will talk SOON,

Best Wishes, Jen

Thanks so much for your comment.
So nice of you to take an interest.
Regards,
Jenny
