McConnochie,Fahey,Halpin families in New Zealand
Would appreciated any help in finding information on these families, mainly in the Auckland area or Clutha.
I would like to find the children of Patrick Fahey and Olive Potter, marriage deaths etc. His siblings or any other info.
Also Patrick Halpin and Celia Jane Burke, she was my 2 Great Grand Aunt.

You do not give any dates of birth, marriage & deaths for McConnochie,Fahey,Halpin families in New Zealand. It would help if you could provide some dates. I would also suggest you start a separate post for each family name it gets messy try to follow two or three families on one post and you are more likely to get a better responds with single family surnames names.
I live in the UK and do not know the areas, towns districts of New Zealand. Could this be your Patrick Fahey
