Looking for the missing link

Dear Wayne
You and I are close relatives. My father Edric Charles was Cecil's brother, and was also born in Wellington NSW. Norman, his eldest son and the cousin who was my age (I was born in July 1936).They lived in Marrickville, in the same street as grandfather Sam; we were in Balmain. Norman and I both finished up in Melbourne. But my family and I moved to New Zealand in 1970. Your cousin Nigel lives in New Plymouth, and he is here with us this weekend.
Anyway, if nobody has told you your connections yet, we have a book of the Lees family which includes all the Collesses, but we have moved to a new house, and I cannot put my hands on it at this moment. My wife Helen is also closely connected with the Colless clan, as a Flack.
Sincerely, your long-lost uncle (or whatever).
