My husband's Great great grandfather John C G Teichert is listed as Beer seller along with his family. By 1883 he had died and his wife died a year later in Colchester Essex where her father resided. His son of the same name came to New Zealand in 1890 via Sydney Australia and settled in Christchurch. He married and had 1 daughter and 3 sons, all deceased. My husbands father was the only one who married and my husband is an only child. I have been looking for some time now for the brother William Frank but have had no luck so far. **

My grandmother was born at this address in 1907, and my great grandfather (her father) was a Licensed Victualler. I am having trouble finding any further details on him and wonder whether there is any more information which anyone would be happy to share? His name (as given on the birth certificate) is Albert Olley (his wife Ethel and his daughter (my grandmother) Florence). ***
