The way you have done our family makes it look very complex.... oh yeah, thats because it is. But actually I am quite impressed that you managed to make a pictorial image of it. Well done. Great to see your blog Lizzy, it is excellent. Love Aunty Caroline
Hi Lizzie I really enjoyed reading all about you! Your writing is excellent, so interesting and easy to read. Hold on to your dream of being an actor, I will look forward to seeing you in your first big movie one day. See if you can guess who I am, I am 4th from the left on the second bottom line of your family tree, love and best wishes from your mystery relative!
Lizzy,That's a great effort with the Robins family tree. Its the first time I have seen it put on one sheet of paper. Really it gets so complicated that you need a three dimensional tree! One point - your great grandfather did not use his first name (George) and was always known by his middle name Noel -- he was named Noel because he was born almost on Christmas Day (1914). Should you ever want to take this back further I can give you the names of Noel's parents, grandparents etc. I can even track back to the link with cousins who migrated to New Zealand in 1849. They were involved in the Otago gold rush and were big farmers near Dunedin and Oamaru. One was in the Otago cricket team. Keep up your interest in politics! For some reason I thought you might be more interested in the Greens than Labour. Love from Grandpa
wow Lizzy this looks great. Even better than the printed copy. Love from Mum.
