  • The database is not letting me add this to the biographical details so I am putting it here. John Noel Atkinson (my father) was born in Wellington New Zealand on 21 August 1917. He lived all his life at 10 Monorgan Road Miramar (now Strathmore ). He died at that address on 13 January 1974. I have put a transcript of his 1939-1945 war diaries & war poems with the National Library.
