I AM looking for a living relative of Henry and Maria Jenkins, of Wimborne, Dorset. They got married on January 25, 1827 and had eight children. One of them named Maria Jannett made it to New Zealand.
She married a Daniel Powell in Auckland, New Zealand in 1855 and had three children.
My reason for this inquiry is that In 2017, it will be 170 years that Daniel arrived in New Zealand. He came from Nursling in Hampshire, and the Powells of Auckland are going to hold a reunion and would like to make contact with a living relative of this family. Thanking you.
