• Notes

  Born Leswalt (30 Mar 1851 Census lodging aged 20 with his sister, Grace aged 17) ?? Grace born 21 Sep 1831 - 20 Sep 1832 Doesn't quite stack up ???... John, Settler to New Zealand Native of Scotland - 7 years in NZ therefore arrived 1859 ?? This conflicts with "Douglass Book" page 46 which states he arrived on "Gil Blas" in 1855 Died at Dunedin 1 September 1866 aged 35 (therefore born between 2 Sep 1830 - 1 Sep 1831)
