Battenburg Report 11 Mar 2009 03:29

Talking to my Middlebrook friend today she told me her father was Walter Middlebrook born 1900/1901 in New Zealand.
Walter died in 1932 age 31. My friend was 1 year 10 months old when he died.
His father was John Middlebrook who came to New Zealand when he was 9. Friend says John was the brewer. She does not have a computer so had no idea where the family came from only Yorkshire. Im at a loss to match this John with the Middlebrook family she mentions.
John Albert Middlebrook with son John A age 4 .This John would be too young to father a son in New Zealand in 1900/1

Has anyone access to ships lists or NZ births to look for any Middlebrooks?
