One Big Happy Family
 
All of the Goulstone’s currently living in New Zealand are related, in some way or other.  99% of them are
directly descended from Henry Goulstone (pictured above), who arrived here in 1861, from Bristol in
England via Australia.  Last year I wrote a short biography on Henry, which is available for download in
PDF format below.  I also have a family tree available, you can e-mail me for that.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
            These are six of Henry’s children that survived to adulthood, from left to right:
 
            Amy, Agnes, Newton (my great grandfather), Rosa, Harold & William            
 
I have a lot of original material and information on the Goulstone family in New Zealand, but am always
after more.  If you have any old documents or letters from any Goulstone that was in New Zealand, I
would greatly appreciate copies of them.  Also, if I can help you in any way with information or photo’s
of a past Goulstone relative of yours, please contact me.
