An N.Z. Record?
Seven sons in uniform constitute the unique record of a Wellington family, that of Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Staden. This is probably a New Zealand record also. The eldest son, Edward, is with the Ist Echelon, Ivan and Aubrey are with the 2nd Echelon, Colin and Stanley are with the 3rd, Hector has enlisted, and George, the youngest of the family, is serving with the Permanent Artillery on the home front. Mr. and Mrs. Staden have eleven children — seven sons and four daughters; one of the latter works in Base Records. Mr. Staden comes of a family of five brothers. Three of them served in the Great War.
