HI, I am researching the families of Peder and Kirstine Jensen, Johannes and Inga Marie Englebretson, Albert Larsen and Johannes and Karen Thompson all who settled in the Hawkes Bay - Norsewood, Makaretu area in the 1870s. I have gotten quite a long way with some of the lines so if anybody wants to see my research or can offer some help then it would be really appreciated.
I think this searching for your family is so addictive and i hope to be able to make some great books with photos of the family and the places they lived at the time they lived there for the rest of my family to enjoy.
Happy hunting everybody :-)
