Title: Passenger lists UK to NZ
Post by: raewyngillian on Tuesday 03 September 13 12:45 BST (UK)

Hi there,  can anyone advise if there are any passenger lists on line for between 1871 and 1878 going from UK to New Zealand or maybe Australia?

I am searching for John James Paxton born 1857 London ( also known as John Beresford Burrell Paxton)

Hoping someone can help.
