New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Whaling and whalers in New Zealand waters

I believe Heberley, James, 1809-1899 was  a whaler in the Marlborough Sounds, it is mentioned in a couple of books that a family member wrote (autobiography ... "H") about their life on a remote bay in the sounds, rescues at sea, etc

Just be aware not every passenger list recorded ages/names  Some have just surnames and initials.

The boys when it was time to leave, St Joseph's,usually went to Rosmini College (Catholic) to finish their schooling.   I am not saying that is where the two Uncles went, but my knowledge of being an old  North Shorian.

They're indexed at https://libindx.moray.gov.uk/mainmenu.asp and the original records can be viewed on microfilm at Elgin Library. Not sure if there is also a microfilm copy in Keith Library.

Thank you.  Can update my records now.
