My Family Tree

French and living in Switzerland in 2013.

Oh god, you are quick!!!!

Yes, you are right, the man in the picture is my father in law, John Brosnahan. I do not know the girl, Gabrielle.
Yes he is a farmer
He actually did reply to me the am. He said he knows a lot unfortunately for the moment he said he is very busy, but I am very sure he will help you.
Yes, information about my husband are right

I know there are some Irish roots as my husband always wanted to go to irland to visit the village Brosnan (probably the origin of Brosnahan???). Didn't get the chance yet. May be John knows.

have a lovely evening

With best wishes
Sandrine

> I believe I have Bernard John Brosnahan 1907- 1987 at Whakatane, Bay of Plenty, New Zealand.
> But I still cannot find the birth and place or correct spelling for his Chatfield wife. The name Marjorie does vary. I don't have their marriage date or place.
> Am I right in thinking that John Brosnahan who married Ria is a cattle breeder? in Ohope, NZ. I could contact him about his mum but I want to make sure it is the right man. His wife's name is Ria so I assume it is the same man. Is this photo of John back in 2007? He certainly has a Chatfield look about him. The girl is Gabrielle.

> I do appreciate your help and it is nice being able to ensure that records on the Internet are correct.

> Dear Sandrine,

> Thanks very much. Do I guess you are French? I have always liked your forename. Who is Pierre? I assume your 'petite grenouilles' are your children. I live in the Charente so I am a Cagouillard, our departement emblem is a snail. Do you live in France or NZ?
>
> Yes I do have an interest in all Chatfield's and their genealogy. My mother became Marjorie Chatfield upon marriage and she was born near London 1910-2005.
>
> Your Marjorie had a sister Kathleen and a half brother Alfred William named after one of the first white men to set foot in Adelaide, SA in 1836. (A lovely city and area). I would love to have any information of the descendants of Selwyn Athol Chatfield and his two wives, Norma Louisa Wyllie and Ann Dolan.
