That 1670 ,of course should read 1870 I've given you the link so you can have a little look around. Who knows what treasure you are likely to find.

Hi mistergee, I am part of that family. I am 32 and live in NZ if my memory serves me right he was a preacher in the central otago goldfields. I don't know much about the history though but there is a family history book around somewhere that I could perhaps get a copy of for you.

Cheers

Caleb
