    • A MYSTERY??

      It is not clear when Henry TRUEMAN was born or died. Henry was not present at the 1851 UK census, but was listed after Alfred William on the shipping passenger list to New Zealand. This suggests he was the youngest child of Henry Trueman and Mary Ann Betts when they migrated to New Zealand in February 1857. Alfred William was born 30 March 1853, so Henry was presumably born in 1854-1856.

      No New Zealand death registration has been found for Henry. It appears from post office directories and electoral rolls that Henry worked as a shoemaker in Petone (1883-1896, possibly longer) and a painter in Wellington (1903-1904). After that he may have left New Zealand.

      Can you help by providing any details?
