Looking for descendants of Benjamin Pascoe & Honor Williams of Taimaru or Waihi
My grandfather, Arthur Humphreys, married Honor Honor Pascoe, daughter of Honor and Benjamin Pascoe. They came to Australia from Waihi, in 1911 or 1912 when my father, Theo, was one year old.
Both Honor and Arthur are buried in Moree, New South Wales.

I am a grandmother of four, mother of three and a descendant of Benjamin PASCOE and Honor (Honner) WILLIAMS. Benjamin and Honor migrated to New Zealand, on an assisted passage, sailing from Plymouth to Lyttleton, New Zealand in 1878. They were married in St Just in Penwith, Cornwall, England and both are buried in Waihi Cemetry, New Zealand. Benjamin died at Thames, Waikato, North Island New Zealand. 23 Jun 1945. Honor died 11 Oct 1939 at Waihi, Bay of Plenty, North Island, New Zealand and was buried in the Waihi Cemetry, Waihi, New Zealand 13 Oct 1939.

Hello,
Looks like we're cousins of a sort! My great grandfather was Ben Pascoe, son of Ben and Honor. If you'd like to contact our branch of the family please send me a private message.,
Hi Karin, My grandfather Arthur married Honor, who was killed in a horrific hit run accident in 1938 and my grandfather was hospitalized for three months. He attended the court case on a stretcher. I was not born until 1940 so I did not know her, but my mother always told me how special she was.
Do you live in New Zealand?
