Hi
Do you mean the 1842 arrival?
http://www.huttcity.govt.nz/Leisure--Culture/Museums-and-galleries/Our-museums/Ptone-Settler-DB/
They are in Petone Early settlers database and the Museum would have more info.

Obviously we could provide loads of info you already have.
Can you give brief summary of names and then the gaps in the research and we will hunt fo the gaps
