Joseph and Sarah Benny (nee Dove) and their young family left London in July 1861 on the sailing boat ‘Royal Stuart’ and arrived in Lyttelton, New Zealand on 8th October 1861.

They settled at Holly Farm, Southbridge, Canterbury, New Zealand.

A reunion is being held on 8 and 9 October 2011 to celebrate 150 years since they arrived in New Zealand.

If you are a descendant and wish to attend, please contact me.
