Who were Matthew Hunter's parents? I looked up N Z Births and found Matthew Albert Hunter b 1878 parents Scott Hunter and Ann Caroline. Was Ann Caroline daughter of  Edmund Israel?

Elizabeth and her husband migrated to N Z. Her sister Jane Pike married Thomas Head in 1843 in Dover and three of their sons migrated to Brisbane, Queensland, Australia and one went to Canada.

Edmund Israel Matthews b 1820 in Kent married Elizabeth Austin Pike 5 May 1833 in Hougham near Dover, Kent. He named his fourth child Seering Hall Matthews b Dover, 1840. The family moved to New Zealand abt 1848. Seering Hall Matthews married in New Zealand in 1862 and called two of his sons Edward Seering Matthews and Seering Frederick Matthews.
 There must be a connection as Seering is a very unusual christian name.
