Introduction
Welcome
to 'our family history pages'. The purpose of the site is to give other family
members access to the results of 20 years of asking questions, wandering through
cemeteries and museums, reading books and records, and more recently searching
on the internet. It is also to provide a place where others with similarly strange habits can
deposit their information for the collective good.
Where From
The path towards this collection of ‘Our family
History Pages has been a long one. In
1986/87 as a result of the death of two of my Mother’s Aunts, I started to
collect information on the family. Preparing
a Wyeth Tree for the family reunion in 1990 and adding the large amount of
information that came from people attending the reunion carried on the process. By
then I had the bug. Early New
Zealand history as it affected Robert Wyeth and his descendants was proving a
very interesting pastime.
The
tree has grown and gone in many directions. It has become more than a Wyeth
Family Tree, it has become ‘Our Family History.’ We have a family to be proud
of and as you read, I hope you will feel some of the pride
I feel in our forefather’s endeavours. In looking at the descendents of Robert
and Jane, I have attempted to account for all Wyeths born or present
in New Zealand prior to 1900. Although Robert and Jane's family accounts for
the majority, I have also included details of the other pre 1900 arrivals.
Where
to
It
is my hope that others will think that this is a worthwhile endeavour and add
their knowledge of the wider family.
As
you read this you will find many holes and, I hope a little less, errors.
