hill111 on 2011-02-08 02:51:38Hi Ngaire, I am a descendant of Ellen Edna Kyra Nesbit. I have her death date as 25 Nov 1962, Panmure, Auckland, New Zealand. I'm puzzled as to why Isabella Maria Margaret is also referred to as Isabella Maria Matilda, maybe you can shed some light on that for me. In recent google activity I see a Terry Taylor has a lot of information regarding the Diamanti/Diamante line. Do you have any information about the Nesbit line? Looking foward to hearing from you.

Jcrcj on 2017-02-27 05:12:34Hello, my name is John Reeve and my grandmother was Winnifred Isabella Nesbit, grandfather Carley Reeve, and father John Reeve. I grew up in Kawhia as well so I knew, as a child, great uncles Verne, Rex, Lou, Esric ('Skinny') and Leo. I did not realise there was a sibling younger than Leo, but I do remember a Kyra being spoken of. I am interested in exchanging any information regarding the Diamantis, Nesbits, O'Connors and Reeves.
