Taylor Emigrated to Australia or NZ

I believe my G-Grandfather's brother (Frank Taylor) may have emigrated just after 1900. I think his son may have been Lester Taylor, who married Margaret. Two of their children were Brett and Vanessa, who were last known to be living in Australia.
I have obtained a Christmas card written by Lester to my aunt (now deceased) in about the late 1970's. He was living in Napier at the time. I would very much like to contact somebody from this part of my family. A bit of a long shot I know, but you never know.

Hi Peter, The National Library (NZ) may help find Lester from electoral rolls (Napier 1970?). They have a 'Librarian service' on-line...worth a try. ....Valerie (WAus)
