Hi Jill, we are on the Sunshine Coast now. Pretty sure I have the record of John and Jane McCaughern. Kaitangata Cemetery is now a park. Salvageable headstones were apparently grouped together at one end of the park. There was no headstone for John or Jane. I have a photo of Thomases Son's headstone. John Thomas from Waituna West Cemetery and one of John Thomas and his brother, Melvin with their Grandmother Clara Eggers. I do also have a photo of Thomas and Violets wedding in 1915, taken at the Eggers Homestead in Waituna West, it's packed away at present though

Daniel McCaughern, son of Andrew & Jane McCaughern, b. Abt. 1826, County Antrim, married Jane Fee, daughter of George Fee & Jane Stone, on January 8, 1846 at Kilrea, County Antrim, Northern Island.

They as far as I can ascertain had 5 sons, George b. September 1, 1850; John B. 1855; James, 1861; William, 1862 and Daniel, December, 1864.  I don't know whether they had any daughters.

John, emigrated to Kaitangata, New Zealand as did James & William.  John Married Jane Colvin at Whitehaven, Cumberland.  James did not marry and William married twice, 1) Mary Bewsher, (from Whitehaven), at Kaitangata & 2) Eliza Bewsher (nee Ritchie).  Eliza is my Grandmother.  Eliza was married to Joseph Bewsher, brother of Mary Bewsher.

I think George is the one who went to Australia but don't know what happened to Daniel.  Did Daniel stay in Ireland?
John and Jane (nee Colvin) are the ones from Kaitangata NZ, they are Thomas's parents. Their Son, Daniel (obviously named after his Grandfather) Colvin McCaughern lived in Fielding which is in the North Island of NZ. Thomas, who married my husband's Grandmother, Violet Eggers in 1915, died in 1918 in the Great War. I have been MIA and now living in Australia

Pretty sure there was a Clare family in Waituna West (near Fielding)  and some buried at Waituna West Cemetery which you'll find on Findagrave

Did not have any luck in regards to the Old kaitangata cemetery as is now does not exist and a number of graves were moved. Apparently, they had nothing for John and Jane McCaughern which is a shame. I have the digitised copy of Thomas McCaugherns records from the army which is wonderful and a good start.
