I believe I am related to William and Julia. My Grandfathers father is Thomas Kendall born 1891 (close to 1890 that you have) New Plymouth. My grandfather had an uncle Bill (William) and I have Thomas Kendall's parents listed as William and Julia but no more info on them than than that. Thomas Kendall had 8 children of which my grandfather is one. His name is Ronald Frederick Kendall Born 6 August 1920 New Plymouth. (email me at ensoll@xtra.co.nz)
