Hi stephenperry

What sort of information are you looking for so we don't duplicate what you aleady know?

Do you have his baptism record? Scotlands People might be the place to go for this one but you'll need to  buy credits at some point.

Was he married before he emigrated?

Are you looking for marriage and death records once he got to New Zealand?

Have you tried our New Zealand resources board?
