James Gregg MCFADZIEN Born 1911 - birth Index, registered at Fortrose I believe this to be the following person:(Keith Douglas Gregg) *Mr. James MCFADZIEN, 19 Eccles Street, Gore, farmer CORRECTION August 2011: Email 1 AUG 2011 from Peter Crump NZ: To whom it may concern, I have just had an interesting look through the web-site. While reading the final summary I spotted that in the list of children to child no 2 , their eldest, James Gregg McFadzien, is believed to be the same James McFadzien of Eccles St. Gore, Farmer. This is not the case as James from Gore was my Grandfather through his daughter Dorothy Crump ( nee McFadzien ). He did not have a middle name. James Gregg McFadzien and James McFadzien were cousins. I trust this is helpful. Regards, Peter Crump, Invercargill , NZ Many thanks Peter - Alec Gregg ADDITIONAL INFO from Peter Crump: 2.
