garrett o'connor bannow wexford
I am searching for a Garrett O'Connor born around 1827 in Ireland, military records from the New Zealand war say he was born in Bannow Wexford he was 37 years of age when he sign up to serve with the 4th Waikato Regiment he came to New Zealand on the swiftsure with his wife Julia O'Connor nee ryan and their four children leaving from Melborne Australia arriving in Auckland New Zealand in 1864. Their eldest son was William O'Connor ?-1902 John O'connor 1851-? James O'Connor 1856-1923 killed in railway accident fourth child dates unknown. Both James and John were born in Paddington Sydney. Both William and James were buried in Symonds Street Cemetery NZ However I cannot find a date of death for Garrett o'connor i do know Garrett died before 1902. I also cannot find a marriage date for him and Julia in New zealand or Australia or imigration to Australia for Julia of Garrett. Garrett was found in New Zealand under different spellings such as Garratt, Garrald and O'Conor. The last record I can find for Garrett was 1870 for rates on his land I have search New Zealand graveyards and birth death and marriages and found nothing. I am wondering where he disappear to. Help would be greatly appreciated.
