Walter Fell in 1895

... that after moving to England for better education opportunities, Walter Fell (pictured) was one of three sons of Alfred Fell who returned permanently to New Zealand to live? Source: Three of Alfred and Fanny Fell's family later came back permanently to New Zealand to live. The article then goes on to explain who the three were, and they all have WP bios (the two brothers were Charles Fell and George Fell). And before anyone complains that the source is a blog, yes, well, it is, but it's a blog run by a number of libraries and museums and there is content oversight. I've used this website a lot for sourcing and have always found it accurate.
