Looking for James & Elizabeth Reilly, arrived Nelson Nz in 1841 with their six children.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Some birthdates or ages would help.

Hi

The only info I have is from the passenger list of the 'London" which left Gravesend England in 1841.  The infomation is as follows:

James Snr   Age 38   Bricklayer
His wife Elizabeth    Age 34

Their children:

William      Age 18    Bricklayer
George     Age 15    Bricklayer
Edward     Age 13
James Jnr  Age  7
Elizabeth   Age  4
Alfred         Age 5 weeks

I am a descendant from James Jnr.  I believe they come from Co Cavan, Dublin Ireland.

I hope you can help.
