Peter John Pezet, b 1861 in Milton, d. 1917 is my husband's great grandfather. My husband is called Peter, which is a name that seems to run in the family. Peter's grandmother was Florence Pezet. I think we have photographs of him.

You are a cousin of my husband's, several times removed I think! He is also descended from a daughter of Peter John Pezet. Married Eliza M Price 17 May 1881 South Dunedin, NZ. Marriage cert says he was born St Heliers, Jersey. Florence Ann was born in Dunedin 18 November 1880 but there's no record. Another child is registered there in 1882 but she died in Milton 1883. Don't know how/why PJP was in NZ or why went to Milton, although his father seems to have been there in the 1870s. Florence m 1)Francis Bell in Milton 2)William Batterham in Mullumbimby. Children by Bell: Stella - died as child in fire, Cecil Peter (Peter's father) and Leslie. Do you know anything about them coming from the Channel Islands? Hope this helps.

HI Jan
I have Pezet and Herival in my LeGallee/LeVallee families! I live in Ontario, Canada. There are many of the family that emigrated to Quebec Canada from the
Channel Islands. I was in Quebec City and have a photo of a headstone for Martha Pezet Reynar.
Hope you are still researching.

Hi there,

In spending a lazy afternoon doing a bit of Family Tree stuff and browsing for information on Peter Pezet I found your entry on the Ancestory.Com. My wife is a daughter of Doris Mary. Doris Mary married Walter Frederick Thistleton in 1933 and they had five children – Ethel Jean (born 1935 and who died shortly after birth) Dorothy June, known as June, (born 1937), my wife Marie Gwenda (born 1940), Barry Walter (born 1946) and Sandra Elsie (born 1948). Doris Mary died in 2000 and Walter Frederick in 1996. Leslie Ree/Redstone resided with Doris in Milton until his death in 1967. I have no idea where the Redstone name came from.

I am unsure whether you are aware that Peter John Pezet was the child of Peter Pezet, a plasterer, whose wife was Ann. He had two sisters Annie and Emma. PP came from St. Heliers in Jersey, Channel Islands and was born about 1839. He and his family emigrated from London on the ship “Jessie Readman” on 25 July, 1874 and arrived in Port Chalmers, New Zealand on 26 October, 1874. The family lived around the Dunedin area.

PP died on 17 August, 1879, in Timaru, New Zealand. He was killed in a wall collapse whilst plastering at the Timaru High School. The inquest ruled it was an “Accidental Death”. The following is a link to an article on the inquest in the Timaru Herald.

At some stage Peter John Pezet moved from NZ to Australia and to Milton but at this stage I have been unable to put a date on the move as passenger records to and from NZ are fairly incomplete.

There was, as far as my wife's family was concerned, a family curtain drawn around the later life and death of Ethel May Pezet. It was only a few years ago that my sister-in-law, June, did some research and found that she had actually died in the Mental Hospital at Stockton, near Newcastle. Apparently from June's research it appears sadly, that she was admitted for what is now diagnosed as Post Natal Depression and stayed at the Hospital until her death. I am not sure the date she was admitted or her length of stay. Considering her last recorded child was in 1919 and if it was PND, the possibility exists that she was a patient for 20 years. She is buried in the Church of England Cemetery at Stockton.

Hope this adds a bit of new information to your research.

Hi

Thankyou So Much for your message update, we may be closer related than you know.

Doris Mary had a brother called Willian John Ree, and Leslie Ree (Redstone) was their Father. William John Ree was in the army for a while, he then married Beryl Boyd in June 1940 and had my father Leslie William Ree in 1940.

I know the name Leslie Ree because he had signed the the marriage certificate of which I have the original, the certificate states that Williams mothers whereabouts or status was unknown.

Sadly William John Ree was killed in 1941 when he was riding his bike home from work. Beryl then remarried and was forbidden by her new husband to contact Williams family, Beryls new husband adopted my after that and then changed his name.

We were not aware of any of this until my grandfather (or who we thought was grandpa) died in 1989, then Beryl told us all about William John Ree, she was able to hide one picture for all those years that she had of William, it is a profile picture of his army identification card which I also still have, as for the rest she was not able to keep much at all.

Beryl did not have anymore children, and my father sadly passed away in 1992, and Beryl followed him 7 years later in 1999.

It makes me sad to think that my Father Leslie named after his grandfather Leslie never got to meet him or Doris.

Its nice to know I have found a relative of my fathers he would have loved this.

Thankyou for taking the time to respond.

Fee
