2nd Marriage for Elizabeth Southee nee Daysh Details
1862/4404, Bride: Elizabeth Southee, Groom: John Rayner
Date and Place of Marriage from Rayner-Daysh family history and records - book
Fielding Star 18 January 1890
The Pahiatua Star is informed that Mr John Rayner, of Masterton, Lincoln sheep breeder, has just taken 1464 lbs of wool from 118 sheep, or an average of a fraction under 12 1/2 lbs each. This at 9d would realise nearly 9s 6d per head.
Otago Daily Times 13 January 1897
This district (says a Palmerston North paper) boasts of what probably no other part of the colony can — viz., five living generations of one family. At the head is Mr J. Daysh, of Taratahi, who, although he is 92 years old, is still hale and hearty. He came out in the second or third boat of pioneer settlers in 1840. Mrs John Rayner is his daughter, and is 63 years of age. One of her daughters married a Mr George Gaskin, whose daughter again is the wife of Mr W. Knowles, and their five-month-old son is a great-great-grandson to Mr Daysh. They are all enjoying good health.
