"[Sean McParland] was my grandfather." (Liam Heni McParland)
"Wow, what a great pic. Dad (Sean) and Tommy were both from Belfast, they were great mates, how young they look. Thanks for the post, I'm so happy to see this xx" (Donna McParland)
"Is this a relative of Finn?? Debbie Chote's Dad is David Hill in this pic." (Shirley Joan)
"Yes, that's Finn's Uncle Sean." (Donna McParland)
"I had no idea Debbie was of Irish stock, funny how everyone's lives are connected. Finn's Dad is Leonard who is the younger brother of Sean. Sadly both Len and Sean have died but the cousins are still a tight knit group." (Alison Fawbert)
"They all came from Northern Ireland along with a lot of Irish boys that arrived in the sixties, there was an Irish club formed which is now in Lower Hutt." (Mary Hunter)
