Cuthbert Nairn and Margaret Highet had a son called William, who married Margaret Gemmel, and their son, George, married Margaret Wyllie, and they, with at least three of their children immigrated to New Zealand, some time between 1853 and 1857. Six more were born in New Zealand.Their 6th child, James Wyllie Nairn married Jane Hartfield Smith, my great grandmother's sister.

There are now Nairns all over New Zealand.

BDM registration commenced in 1840.  Google NEW ZEALAND+BDM, then click on Historical Records.  It is a goldmine.

George Nairn and his brother John went to Australia in 1854. Then they moved on to New Zealand. George's wife and five children came out on the Lord Burleigh in 1856. She had James Wyllie/Wylie Nairn exactly nine months later. I have lovely photograph of him in his later years. I have a tree in my files, but it is incomplete. Also have a photo of George and Margaret's wedding. I am descended from James Wyllie Nairn's brother John Nairn. As you say, there are Nairns all over New Zealand now.
