PREFACE
Soon after I started collecting material about Walter and his family, I obtained a copy of The Family Saga by Marie Lawry. It was published on the occasion of a Bailey family reunion held at Templeton, South Island of New Zealand on 3-4 December 1988 to celebrate 125th anniversary of the arrival of Walter's uncle Samuel and family at Christchurch in the Brothers' Pride in December 1863.
This book is, in a sense, complementary to that one and includes a lot of information from it - because of migration between Australia and New Zealand, some people are mentioned in both books.
In also calling my book a Saga i.e. tales of legendary exploits, I have deliberately followed the lead of the earlier one in order to add some colour to a mere recital of births, marriages and deaths but the interpretations of some of the records are entirely my own.
The book is a compilation of all the material given to me about the Baileys and I do not claim the version here given is the final or correct one and any corrections or additions for a future up-date would be most welcome.

NOTES ON GENEALOGY
The genealogy of each family is shown at the end of the relevant chapter. It commences with full details about the parents and their children are recorded in order of birth as First Generation. The Second Generation contains all of the grandchildren, following the order of the preceding generation, whilst Third Generation shows the great grandchildren and so on.
Descendents are numbered in sequence from the beginning of each new chapter and this number remains the same throughout. The initial number/s do not refer to generations, but to the chapter/s in which an entry is recorded and square brackets refer back to an earlier entry.
Female surnames are in lower case enclosed in brackets and males are in capitals and identify the surname of the children that follow.
Surnames are only mentioned in the heading 'Family of' and the first name is always that of a Bailey family member.
While collecting various records of family members, a lot of detail was found about their spouses families and this is recorded as Spouses Families for which an index is provided.
The genealogies are compilations of various records so far found of each family and additions and corrections would be welcomed. An information sheet for this purpose is provided at the end of the book.
