New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Vessel Indian Queen Passenger List help plse.
« on: Tuesday 21 July 09 08:10 BST (UK)  »
Thanks Lu for the information on the Glover's. The 4 fares would be fore Rebecca Glover (wife of John) and their 3 daughters, Amy, Rebecca and Elizabeth Ann. Amy is a bit of a mystry - she is mentioned as their daughter in the 1851 UK census but can find no information about her in NZ. she certainly died prior to her mother. I wonder if shew actual died on the journey to NZ as I can find no record of her death in NZ.

I looked up the 1851 UK census and note that a Thomas Walker (born 1829) was living at the same address as for John (born 1829) and Rebecca Glover. I assume that John Glover and Thomas Walker were cousins.

I have no record of Mary Walker coming to NZ, but from experience with other family members, When they came to NZ there were often 2 or 3 siblings or cousins who came - maybe not all at the same time.

I tried to contact the person whose email you sent me, however, it bounced back as an invalid email address.

I will lokk further into Thomas Walker. I do not know if he is connected or not. John Glover's mother was a Mary Walker and I have come accross family connections with Walker's in NZ so I am seeking to see if there is a connection. Do you have a obt for Rebeeca Glover? Where can I obtain a copy of this?

Thanks for your assistance.

Sorry about the slowness of replying. I have been away. The daughters ages on the death cert are 47,45,40,38 and 28. I suspect the youngest was a Fanny Glover. As for Elizabeth I suspect her name was Elizabeth Ann - as per a marriage record for 1871.

Hi, It is Rebecca and John Glover. In particular I am seeking the names of their children - i have 2 names (Rebecca and Elizabeth) but I understand that there was a third daughter also whose name I do not know.

I am also looking for a copy of the passenger list for the Indian Queen arriving in Wellington, New Zealand in January 1857. In particular, I am interested in the names Glover and Walker.
