Frederick Bonnington of Nelson and Canterbury New Zealand

I am trying to discover details about the children of Frederick Bonnington.

He was born to Joseph and Harriett Bonnington in Derbyshire, 1844.
The family emigrated to New Zealand in 1849 aboard the Mariner.

In 1865 he married Mary Ann SAYWELL the daughter of George and Susan SAYWELL who emigrated to Nelson, New Zealand in 1840.

His Brother Herbert had also married Susan Quafe SAYWELL.

George Bonnington, an elder brother of Frederick, was a well known chemist in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Hi Cliff,
The Saywell family tree is here which has Frederick and Herbert Bonnington on it (of course)

George & Susan Saywell and their 15 children

However, I see I have not added the children for Frederick and Mary Ann yet, but keep going back to it from time to time as I will be adding them as of tonight :)
