Hi Rosie May I butt in on your chat. We are at present doing research for the Family of John Hull husband of Isabella Cann - brother-in-law of Catherine and Eleanor. I note that you mention a photograph of Isabella. We have a few of her in her later days and would desperately love to come across one of a younger lass. We have a few other Cann photos including Thomas and Margaret Cann.
The Cadwicks left New Zealand in 1864 with two infants,George and Frederick?  I assume George was named after the girls brother who died with the rest of the adventurers on the Franklin Expedition trying to find the East to West Northern Passage. ;

Hi Oldtaniwha I'm afraid the photo of Isabella is when she is older
