    Default BRAKE Family

    I'm trying to trace the decendants of a John and Lina BRAKE (nee HALL).
    Lina was born in Lepperton Taranaki in 1868 to a George and Catherine HALL (nee REARDON). She married John BRAKE in 1886.

    Any info would be helpful.

    Hello Samantha,

    Good to hear from you. Lina was my great aunt. With luck I maybe able to give you information to. The stuff you have listed I already have. But that is all the info I have on them, I'm hoping that you maybe able to help me with other information. I'm currently on sick leave and will contact you again next week.

    PS. I'd put this request on here a long time ago and had forgotten about it. Just goes to to show - never give up. Someone out there has the info that you are looking for.
