Hello again Leanne, Have you found any links yet with your Blays and my Edith Blay? Where did your Blays settle in NZ and which ship did they arrive on, presuming you have that information? At the baptism of one of her children, Ernest Henry Burgess on 25 Dec 1892 at St Augustine's, Clarkville, a sponsor was William Blay, possibly her father or brother. Is this any help?
Kind regards,
Roger
