Notes
General:
061020 from Janet McIntyre:

Hello Chris,
Yes I did find that incorrect information , for the life of me I can't remember but it appeared to come from you. When it pops up again I will let you know.

I'm in touch with one of Johns relations from South Africa at present and have been able to send him photos of documents, which he is pleased to receive. Granddaughter had to show me how to do it.

Another Gray tale . Elizabeth Freeth married James Rooke they had a son George James. James died. Elizabeth married Edwin Gray 1850. George James Rooke married Elizabeth Jardine they had a son George Melbourne Rooke . George James Rooke then went of to the Thames Gold fields in New Zealand.

Elizabeth did not hear from him and she presumed he had died , as one was permitted to do then. Elizabeth then marries again. Elizabeth dies and it is Edwin Gray who sorts out her estate. That is when it is discovered that George James is still alive in New Zealand. George Melbourne Rooke is living with his Grandmother Elizabeth Gray and step grandfather Edwin in Walthamstow , he died there at age 20.

Edwin had paid for a number of graves and that is when I was on the search for who George Melbourne Rooke was. Quiet intriguing. 601
