Good suggestion LM, let's know Ron if it works out. Also how are you doing with the NZ newspaper search, if you have found info can you post so I do not duplicate - happy to follow up things if you want. or to bow out if you are on a roll - if you are on a roll bit meet a brick wall again, happy to try to help.

none found in the papers yet, there must be an advertisemant for a landscape gardener in christchurch, announcement of a birth death or marriage somewhere to do with my munros .... i just have to find it. luckily I am retired and have most of the day to do it.

Ron The site has cut the address down to the search box.. When you get to the site page just put in the names of the 2 boys,,They are both there..
Very handy site this..When searching just go into Google and put in ARCHWAYS NEW ZEALSND and a few come up that are interesting..

When searching for David just put in his first 2 christian names and the intial S before his surname..

Have fun searching the sites..

Electoral Rolls for Thomas Murray Munro.

1917 Resident of Palmerston North joined Army reserves 2nd Div.

!905-6 Electoral Roll
Thomas Murray Munro Taonui Street Palmerston North. Labourer
Mary Ann Munro Married

1911 Electoral Roll
T. M Munro living 194 Church Street P. N.. Occ. Ploughman
Evelyn Ethel Munro Married

1914 Electoral Roll
T.M.Munro Living 198 Main Street East P. N. Occ ploughman
Evelyn Ethel married

1919 Electoral Roll
Manawatu General Roll
T.M Munro Rongoten Farmer
Evelyn Ethel married

1928 Electoral Roll
Rotorua General Roll
T.M. Munro Waharoa Sharemilker
Evelyn Ethel married
Raymond Munro Dairyfactory hand

1935 Rotorua
T.M. Munro Waharoa Sharemilker
not sure if Evelyn Ethel is with him..a bit confusing..

There is a death for a Thomas Murray Munro age 73 (1937/22679)registration number,,this might be his death..There is another in 1945 but it has no age..

The electoral rolls are not easy to find who the family members are if there is not a street and house number as they are all alphabetically done under the name Munro..so if they are not living together it is impossible if you dont know their names..
