very vague

[Lois A]

Hi Sandy, as i say it all a bit vague (rather like me)
I better start at the beginning...
Sidney harrison married Edith Mcnally in 1911, son Ernest S Harrison b 1912.
Sidney died in 1914. It was thought throughout the family that edith and Ernest went to Australia.
I was then contacted by a lady in Australia, her father was Ernest and mother was Nancy Trew, nancy died shortly after this ladies sister was born in Suva Fiji 1953. Ernest died in 1996 in Gisbourne Zew Zealand, the younger sister died in Brisbane.
What happened to Edith I dont know, I can find no info,

Edith Harrison was my grandmother. She was living in Fiji at the time of my birth. Sometime between 1949 and 1954, she moved to Gisborne, New Zealand.
She died in Gisborne on August 25th 1964.
