Searching for anyone related to Shirley Madeline Campbell Barker

Terri from Bell Block

Hi, this is a family tree request. I am trying to find anyone related to the above mentioned lady. She passed away in September 2002. She had four children one a daughter named Sharon Jane Barker who is the person I would very much like to get in contact with. Sharon posted a message on Ancestry in 2002 for any information on living relations in the UK. A relative of mine in the UK stumbled on the message as he was researching his tree which includes the husband of Shirley Madeline a William Peter Barker. He did reply to the message but got no reply, so asked, being as I live in NZ if I could help him find Sharon. So I am putting this out to all of Taranaki and hopefully someone out there will be able to help me with my mission. Thank you, Teresa Barker.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
