Obituary
- NORRIS, JOHN HENSLEIGH. On 14 June 2017. Loved father of Mel, Miranda, Max and Janet. Loved father-in-law of Al, Stephen, Alan and Thomas. Much loved grandfather of Felix, Emily, Elliot, Serena, Nick, James Charlotte, Lara and Nikita. Brother and brother-in-law of Rob and the late Beryl; Mike and Susannah. Uncle to Peter, Andrew, Chris and Hew. Rest in Peace. A service will be held at The Dove Chapel, Eden Village, 8 Sydenham Road, Mt Eden, on Wednesday 21 June at 2pm.[2]
Research Note
The parents of John are marked as uncertain due to a lack of birth record in the New Zealand BDM online. However, after another John Hensleigh Norris was discovered in the NZ records, his family was entered in an attempt to link the two men - most likely grandfather and grandson. John Hensleigh Norris had three sons: one died at four weeks of age, one does not appear to have married, and the third is Noel Hensleigh Norris, who married in 1926. It seems to fit that Noel and Florence are John's parents.
