NZ OtgReg

[Jarvis]

Researching local WW1 soldiers (Barnard Castle) I recently requested help on a Canadian Enlisted chap and received incredilble information and help. many useful links to canadian WW1 sites, all on-line and free.

What is the status of New Zealand archives ? Any useful sites that can be recommended ?

In particular I am researching the following chap (the only NZ connection I know of from the local lists I have).

Any information appreciated.

Kooky - Many thanks for your speedy reply and information.

OtgReg - what is its full title ? I've looked but not yet found.

Hold on Otago Rifles ?

[alliekiwi]

OtgReg = Otago Regiment

Unfortunately the NZ service records are not online free to look at as the Australian ones are. You can order a copy from the National Archives, but it'll cost you $25NZ - and they may charge you more if you're overseass, but I'm not really sure on that point.

I'm going to National Archives this week and will look him up for you.

A combination of living locally, school holidays and needing something to do for the 9,6 and 3 year olds, got us down to the cemetary for a few hours today. Hopefully this is usefull to your research.

Dave

[alliekiwi]

You sound like me, Dave. My son is very good at reading cemetery maps and is now very used to looking for headstones with me. What a macarbre way to spend the summer hols. I can just see the story writing when school starts: "What I did in the holidays... My mum and I went to lots of cemeteries and took photos of graves of dead people..."

Allie

[Jarvis]

Many thanks for this effort, greatly appreciated and a good quality photograph. Well done Captain Dave.

Having established that Harold Dixon was born in Barnard Castle I was wondering how I would discover how and when he emigrated to NZ.

Any ideas where I could try to research this idea ?

[christine liava'a]

Harold Percy Dixon, an agricultural labourer, was mentioned in the NZ Gazette in 1917 as being called up for military training, from Nukumaru.

which apparently is in the Wanganui district.

If you purchase a copy, NOT a certificate, of his death registration from the registrar, it should state the no of years he had been in NZ.

http://www.dia.govt.nz/diawebsite.nsf/wpg_...nDocument#three

Otherwise, the nearest entry points to Wanganui for ships from Britain were New Plymouth, Wellington, and Auckland. He could have arrived at any of them, or others further away.

Do you know his date of birth?

[ZackNZ]

Hi Jarvis

Well as promised a summary of the National Archive file on your man.

I ordered and read the actual original hard copy file i.e. the History Sheet which was only one page (written on both sides) and with the ‘usual add ons’. (If you don't order the original file you only get a photocopy!)

I’ve also order a copy to review of the microfilm that was on the file because there looked to be more information on these and as they are about 35 years old they need to be printed off for review, as the microfiches at National Archives are not really designed for reading these older microfilms.

I will be in touch again once I’ve reviewed them for you.

In the meantime here’s what you have on the Harold Percy Dixon file. I think you will find it answers some of your queries and raises others.

Also listed as ‘Next of Kin’ is ‘Mr N Moore (friend) Nukumaru’

There seemed to be some confusion on someone’s part that he was married because there are four references on the file to him being married as follows:

1 Next of kin: “Wife Mrs Lillian M Barlett (Dixon) whereabouts unknown” and someone has written over the top in black pen “Soldier not married.”

2 “Will leaving everything to soldier executed 3 months after marriage. See letter on file of 9.11.20.” Again someone has written over the top in black pen “This (is) wrong. Soldier was not married.”

3 Margin note written on file in black pen: “See HS 4/1768 P N Dixon re marriage. The entries on this HS refer to 4/1768 who wife L M Bartlett is.”

4 Wife’s maiden name Lillian May Bartlett (widow) Place of marriage St Johns Boscombe England Date 25.4.1918, Officiating Clergyman or Registrar Rev W? ? Walker. This has written over it in black pen “Wrong Soldier not married.”

Someone had a ‘bad work day/s’ at the record office!

The file has a stamp marked “Will with Public Trust.” (I looked this up for you and couldn’t find it but it would be held at National Archives office in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Christine - thanks for your input. I am at work now and will reply with info later.

Zack - many thanks for all of your information, an incredible amount. Does the ordering of the History Sheet, etc incur costs, and if so are you out of pocket ? I am more than willing to re-imburse you for you help. I will post later this evening after the dreaded Monday morning ritual of work is over.

I am impressed with all of this input.

I have also discovered another one from my rolls who emigrated to Australia and served with the AIF. But that will be another posting.

Once again a big thank you to all who have contributed.

Jarvis

[ZackNZ]

Thanks Jarvis - No I'm not out of pocket - I do it because a lot of people over time have assisted me AND I'm researching at Archives for myself on my own projects - so a blink in time is not worth much! I just hope that it's a help to you.

Cheers

Zack

[Jarvis]

Harold Percy Dixon, Do you know his date of birth?

Thanks Christine, Zak Has supplied me with date of birth 30.12.1884 although I am 100% that Leeds, Yorkshire is in fact correct. I have seen several dob's stating birthplace as Barnard Castle, Leeds, England for other local chaps when Leeds is a good hours drive away from here. Census details prove he was in Barnard Castle at an early age. Perhaps the registery of his birth took place at Leeds or there may be another story. For the moment I am satisfied that he is a local chap.

[christine liava'a]

If he was born in 1884, and his mother is still in England in 1922, he came to NZ as a single man, probably sometime after 1900. But I can't see him emigrating once war had begun, so between 1900 and 1914.

Here is some information about Nukumaru

I have had so much help from the Forum, it's members are A1.

Hi Jarvis

Well again as promised I’ve reviewed the old microfilm files (photo copy) and surprise, surprise there was some more information on them than on the actual original file held at Archives. The new bits of information gives some clue as to when he arrived in New Zealand – you will spot it - and Christine was correct. His physical description is also revealing and explains why he had to try twice to get into service.

The microfilm print out (very unclear in places) had the following nine documents with information on it in the following, somewhat chaotic, order:

Document One - Proceedings of a provisional medical board dated 8 Oct 1918

On board the Ionic at the Port of Auckland the following:

Apologies I rechecked my notes his birth year was 1884. The other details are as recorded on the file.

The other thought I had was that the local papers may have contained some reference to his death. When I get a chance I will take a look.

Zack

[Jarvis]

Zacknz & Christine, thanks for your research. It is one of the most in depth researches I have ever received from the Forum, in fact I have only ever managed to research one of my 'chaps' in that much detail to date (and he is not yet complete). I am indebted to your efforts and kindness towards my original request.

I have still to collate all of this information into his 'army life story' but feel that, between the two of you, you have just about done the job. A big thank you.

I am at work at the moment so cannot express myself for too long. Thank you.
