Hello JoP,

You could try Telecom NZ Residential Numbers. It's a start as there are four names Kirby in the Grey Lynn area.

I find this is a great way to start if all avenues have failed - like door knocking!!

Regards,

Sappho

ps too many Taylors in the phone directory.

Researching:
Clifford, von Rimscha, Politov/Politova, von Berg, (Russia, Latvia and Germany) Povey, Turner - South East of London. Goodwin, Daniels and Noble (in every sense of the word)!

Thanks Sappho I actually resorted to that last night! ha! There appears to be a Kirby business in Grey Lynn but couldnt find an email, but have postal addresses. I've spoken to someone at the local community centre who has given me an email address for Grey Lynn's local paper, so hopefully will get a mention in there if theyr interested! Im determined! :) Jo
