Answers
hi BCA,
could you please provide a little more info, like at least the towns in New Zealand, first names, any children etc so we know who to try and link
hi,
my grt grt grandmother Emily Christian 1-7-1851 to 17-1-1922 I think her mother died[ Elizabeth Caroline Sutton 1824 to 1864 Deal] and her father [ Benjamin Fisher Christian 23-6-1814 to 18-11-1874] remarried into the White family. Because the story goes she called on family in Melbourne [ White and Christian shipchandlers] on her way to ChCh,NZ to stay with aunties on the White side of family in ChCh
cheers
