- Notes: Elizabeth Meyer's birth was registered in Cootamundra, New South Wales, Australia in 1878, she was the daughter of Marion and John Black. In 1900 her marriage to Charles F Meyer was registered in Junee, New South Wales where there two daughters were born before immigrating to New Zealand before their son was born in 1904.

Their children include:
Daisy Catherine Marjorie Meyer Williamson 1900-1970
Freda Valentine Meyer Williamson 1902 - 1979
William Charles Meyer McDonald 1904 - 1960
Bernard Leslie Meyer 1907 - 1907
Beatrice Janet Meyer McDonald Sodersten 1909 - 1975
Rita Josephine McDonald Webber Scott 1915-2000
(Registered on NZBDM in 1916 as Reta Josephine McDonald born to Lilian and Charles).

Elizabeth Marian Meyer was known as Elizabeth Marian McDonald. It seems that Elizabeth and her German husband Charles adopted the more British sounding surname of McDonald at the start of WW1, due to the dangerous anti German sentiment of the time that also induced the British Royal Family to change their German sounding surname to Windsor.
