New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Sutherlands in Christchurch 1860 +?

we are the descendants of Arthur Ernest Keating and Annie Leith. The two brothers John Joseph and Arthur married two sisters Christina and Annie Leith from Ngaruawahia. The girls father was James Leith from Wick Caithness. His half siblings from his father Alexanders 1st marriage were with a lady called Christain (Christina?) Sutherland of Wick. The names that have been mentioned in these posts are family names that have been handed down and tie in with our findings. We have a theory that James and Isabella Sutherland may of been related through the relationship of his father and 1st wife.
We believe that James would of arrived at a similar time as Isabella but at this stage have no details. They were born approximately the same year.
Fantastic learning more about the Keating side as we only had info on John Joseph and Arthur no further back.
Would be great to hear from you all with any more info. Jane and Michelle x
