Welcome to the Reesby Family Site
This website is for the interest of the Reesbys in the world ... and in particular it's an attempt to find out more about my great-grandparents. As far as I know, Thomas Boyd Reesby was born in Kettering, Northamptonshire, England, probably during the 1850s. I believe Boyd was his mother's maiden name and she was Scottish. I'd love to know more about her.
As for me ... I'm Patricia Reesby (I've been married but use my maiden name) and I live in Wellington, New Zealand. |

Blenheim in the 1870s ...
At right is a postcard of Blenheim as it probably appeared in the 1870s when Thomas Boyd Reesby married Dora Amy Coates. You'll find the story of her life (as much as I know of it) on her own pages.
Why did they come here?

Why did early European settlers leave their home countries?
That's one of the questions I hoped to answer in looking at my own great-grandparents.
