William Henry Goodwin- The Times of his Life

I find that when dealing with a relative that is a bit confusing sometimes its good to make a timeline of their life . It helps make sense of what is going on.
Ive done this for my 3x G Grandfather William Henry Goodwin aka Henry Goodrum. l
He goes by several variations of his name throughout his life- some of his children are registered as Goodrum, some as Goodwin, some not registered at all.
The constant in all is his wife's name Jane. 
To make things more complicated there was another couple living in Auckland contemporary with my 3x G Grandparents - also William Henry Goodwin and Jane. though she was Jane nee Russell and my 3x G Grandmother was Jane nee Boyt.
The other couple lived first in Auckland city and later moved to Kaukapakapa, whereas my ancestors started in Auckland city and later moved to Ngaruawahia.
