I understand that Vernon was from the Channel Islands, and may have had an association with the Sadlers Wells Ballet.

Louisa is the daughter of my Great Aunt, Louisa Josephine BLAKELY, nee ROLLESTON, and was born in Belfast, Ireland in 1895.

As far as we are aware there are no other Caveys in NewZealand Merv and I have resided in NSW in Australia for the past 25 years and see the Cavey name crop up frequently in all states

Didn't think there were so many CAVEYS out there, let alone on the NET.

I am a dairy farmer in the South Island of New Zealand milking 180 Jersey cows.

I am married (to Maria) and have two children Toni-Lee age 6, and Rhys age 3.

Regards Suzanne Cavey. Okato. New Zealand

I just found you site, and itīs good. I am looking for a Cavey family from Gulgong, NSW, australia. They have family in New Zealand. I was an exchange student in 1989.

I am Suzanne Cavey's (Okato, New Zealand) oldest daughter.  I am 23, and currently finishing my degree, majoring in geography. 

I think this site is fantastic and promotes not only the amazing technology available at our fingertips today, but also something that is very precious to us all,  - our families

(New-Zealand)  07 July 1997

My husband, Gordon is the fourth generation Cavey that settled in New-Zealand in the late 1800 in Wellington.

My husbands grandfather, John Winter Cavey was born in 1889, he was the fifth child of Charlotte & George Cavey. He married Ellen Stollery, they moved to Taranaki in 1914 and began dairy farming. They had five children George,Iris,Violet, Grace & Bill George Cavey was my father-in-law. He died in 1990 in car accident.

Gordon and myself dairy farm on the Taranaki plains at Okato.

We have three children, Sonja, Katrina and Bevin. The great grandfather is believed to have come from Cornwell.We have our only immediate family we know of within New Zealand.There has been talk that part of the family could have come from France.I would be interested to know your family history. Good to here from another Cavey.
