I am looking for information on my great-great grandparents, Joshua Gallichan and Elizabeth Ann Hellyer. Also information on my great-grandfather, Edwin Charles Gallichan (one of the children of Joshua and Elizabeth). They arrived in Dunedin NZ in 1875 onboard WAIMEA. Happy to share what little more I know!

Una Stanton

I am looking for any information or relatives of Una Stanton, née Gallichan. Una was born in New Zealand, January 1, 1900. She married Henry Thomas Stanton in 1934 in London.

It seems they sailed to Quebec on the Empress of Britain in 1936. They then lived at 1011 Richelieu Street, Vancouver. Henry died 1956; Una 1967, both Canadian citizens and still living in Vancouver.

Una was my grand-aunt. She was the sister of Ivy Elizabeth Gallichan (my grandmother); Mabel Annie Gallichan; Catherine (Kate) Gallichan; Nellie Louise Gallichan; and David Ernest Gallichan.
