According to the passenger list Matthew born 1907 went to New Zealand with his parents Matthew and Elizabeth. Rosie Hunt from the census given in the post above by BeverleyW did not travel with them.

Their last residence in England was Belle Vue, Beech, Alton, Hampshire.

Hi,
I'm helping my elderly father find relatives and more about his ancestry .Im trying to find out more information on Matthew Thomas Hunt 'Mack' cka Michael who moved to New Zealand in 1948 .He passed away in 1961 .Ive managed to find his last address in New Zealand in Ponsonby ,Auckland and I've ordered a copy of his death certificate .We cannot find any photos of him .Is there any way of finding somebody either in England who knew him before he moved or from New Zealand .He was born in London in 1907 .He was my Dads Uncle .I was hoping that his Death Certificate would help,I thought it would have to be registered by family member/friend but there is none of that on there .

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Sincere Thanks
