Thanks everyone.
This has filled in some gaps. However,as ever, you get one answer and you then have more questions! I’m going to go to mark this complete and use the Australia and New Zealand chats to try and get some help. 😊

Some trees on Ancestry have John Watson Munro married to a Jessamine about 1882 and having children in Australia, with also one born to them in NZ.

Quite a few MUNROs in NZ records with Watson as a second name.
