Does Anyone Know Anything About William Nielsen Syme
He served in the Taranaki Militia during the NZ Wars and achieved the rank of Sergeant.
I don't know when he arrived on NZ but he seems to have arrived well before his family.

Thankyou, once again.
I cannot find anything else about him. He may have been known as Sime or Syme and Nelson or Nielsen?
He married a Catherine Bonthorne who ended up being 'institutionalised'?
