Hello Andrea,
I am Noel Ferguson. I live in Ingleburn, a south-western suburb of Sydney, NSW, and I believe we are distant cousins. The common ancestors is your grandfather Fred Elbe and my grandmother Winifred Lillian Elbe, Fred's sister. I have long known there is a NZ connection, and recently I rediscovered a painting by your mother in my elder sister's posession, which was originally given to my mother (Rose Annie Stein) by Rewa. How I found you was through a Google search on Rewa Elbe.
If you are agreeable, I would like to correspond via email, and perhaps we could share information. I do have only one photo of my grandmother, great uncle and their parents, which I would like to share with your family.
Please reply to this post using my personal email

Regards
Noel Ferguson
