Gilfillan Mary OR Isabella

Mary arrived with her sister ISABELLA on the 'SEVILLA' in 1864, she was a young child having been born 29/5/1862, Isabella was 18

They were 'assisted' passengers

She, Mary, then disappears, cannot find any further records on her - was she one of the 3 children who died on the voyage?

Isabella went on to marry Hugh Jones in Arrowtown in 1866 and have 13 children with him, the first daughter in 1872 being called Mary Gilfillan Jones, and a son called Peter Jones in 1885 who is my partner's Grandfather.

Would love to find out what happened to her

Apparently this Mary is not the young child born 29/5/1862 - I have been told that she did not leave Scotland so this Mary remains a mystery as to who she was etc. I cannot find any reasonable records relating to any other Mary anywhere in NZ
