I am researching my ggggrandparents Richard Burnett born 1805 Kent, England he was a Agricultral labourer,sailed from London 27th April 1841 on the "Whitby",arriving in Nelson New Zealand 20th Oct 1841.. His wife Sarah Ironmonger born 1805 England came out on the " Lloyds"
with her husband Richards two children from his first marriage, George & Harriet, and pregnant with her first child. George was to die on the voyage out to New Zealand.
I would like to hear from any decendants.

searching for when my great great grandfather came out to New zealand settled & died in Nelson NZ.
I have fruitlessly searched for him coming out to NZ on a ship from Germany but haven't found anything.
Ferdinand Frederick Niemann or could be spelt Neumann born 1826 Germany married Nelson 1855 to Mary PRITCHARD died Nelson 1880.
Now I believe he may of gone to South Australia as in 1859 in the South Australian Gazette Natralisation that name appears as Neumann.
so how do I go about trying to search the shipping records from there to Nelson NZ.
