big thank you to Tessa for finding a passenger list for the INDIAN QUEEN
ALSO READ the helpful comments at end

* The Indian Queen was a 1050 tons clipper which departed Liverpool 1 Nov 1856 arriving in Wellington Friday 30 Jan 1857 with 15 cabin and 400+ steerage passengers at £20 a head.
Captain D. F. Jobson & Medical officer Dr J. B. Tuke, Esq.
She was the second ship of James Baines & Co's Black Ball line of packets and was a sister ship to the Oliver Lang.
NOTE The list is actually of the signed (and overdue) promissory notes of the men from that voyage and is probably not a complete list of the passengers which varies from paper to paper and over time I have seen from 270 to 340 to even 451! immigrants (plus other (cabin) passengers) on board.
The report that there were 90 married men, 90 married woman, 63 single men, 13 single women, 68 boys, 60 girls and 21 infants who disembarked is probably more realistic. I will add further names and any relevant info to this journal, as found.

There was also a full cargo of general merchandise
* 22 deaths occurred on board (have also seen a report of 12) during the voyage. 20 children died of the measles and 2 adults (Mr & Mrs Fitness) died of severe diarrhoea. There were reported to have been 4 births on board

A misunderstanding is reported to have arisen in Wellington between the provincial authorities and the immigrants. It appears that a verbal engagement was made by the agent of the province in Liverpool to the effect that all men emigrating would receive employment immediately on landing at 5s a day. In consequence, employment was offered on the roads and public works but the rate of wages was reduced to 4s a day. The men to whom the promise was given by the agent stood out for its complete performance and threatened that if 5s were not given that they would not pay their promissory notes when they came due, at periods of twelve and twenty-four months.
Because of this threatened refusal one of the recusants was summoned and imprisoned and police were stationed on board vessels about to eave the harbour and searched them to prevent re-emigration.
A number of the emigrants assembled before the police office using threats and 'violent language'.

The promissory notes were signed in Liverpool but were not stamped and a question was raised about their legality.

* the number after each name is the number of emigrating people in the family the promissory note was signed for. This may, or may not, include the 'head of the family' who signed (apart from 1, I would think). The more info I can find on each family who traveled the more evident it will become
* birth/death dates in brackets are mine
