It is great to hear from you.
I have assembled quite a lot of information about the descendants of James and Catherine Turbott (my great grandparents) who came to New Zealand from County Tyrone on the "Ganges" in 1865.
Margaret ("Maggie") was their first New Zealand born daughter. It is her family I know least about and I would be very happy to find out more - perhaps we could correspond by email.
Incidentally, there was a reunion of "Ganges" descendants in Pukekohe last year, and Ross Miller is now writing a book about the various families and their descendants.
Best wishes,
John Turbott
