I dont suppose the above could be his parents? However I cant see a John Smith with parents of that name

Brilliant

That mothers name cant be correct, Ive search various spellings and nothing is showing that matches

I dont suppose you know when/where Johns parents were married or when he left the UK for NZ?

x

is that better Ginny
