Hi can someone please help find shipping records for the Watson family to New Zealand.. Possibly between the years of 1864 - 1870. They may have come from South Africa, or the UK ?. Family names are Sarah Watson nee Allen (mother)b.abt. 1829, William Watson(father) b.abt 1827,Cartmel Fell, Lancashire, children Anna 1853, William 1854, Harriet 1856, Thomas 1858, James 1860, Charles 1864. I'm not sure if the husband came to NZ, although there are 3 more children born in NZ ?. I have the husband on the 1871,1881,1981,1891 UK Census, he died in the UK. Maybe he left the family and went back to the UK, the rest of the family stayed in NZ. This is abit of a mystery, Many Thanks |
