My name is Richard and I reside in the North Island of New Zealand,on the rough and windy West Coast. My Scottish family came to N.Z. as pioneers way back in 1841 on the ship named the Brilliant. The Lawlors were their name They lived and died their full lives in Thames,South East of where they landed in Cornwallis Auckland N.Z. They had 8 issues,my great grand mother was called Elizabeth Foulis Lawlor the 2nd born daughter,but a first generation Kiwi. The next born was called Henry Charles Thomas (Charlie) Lawlor. Born at Cornwallis 30 August 1849 N.Z. Charlie Lawlor had moved to South Africa,where he was managing the Jumpers'Gold Mining Company in Doornfontein,near Johannesburg. 1890 Johannesburg was a recently established town then. His next venture were in two Diamond Mines,one in the Orange Free State the other in the Transvaal During 1898,Charlie met a young Afrikaans women named Anna Benade. In 1899 she gave birth to their son named James Thomas Lawlor. Anna contracted scarlet fever.She died in February 1908. The information given came from a Lawlor decedent who sadly passed on 3 years ago in Wellington N.Z. Thanks to Louise Buckingham and her treasure book named the 3 Worlds of Ann & Henry Lawlor I would have not learnt of our connection on the other side of the world in Johannesburg. Margaret Lawrie I hope you see this. 2008 is a good while between letters ah. I write this in the hope that any of my Great Grand Uncles issues my see this and make contact though this web page. Thanking you Richard. Hi I’m just nosing about when I spotted your connection and I thought why not say hi and interduce my self.
