This is AMAZING! I can't get over the difference one letter makes. Even though I have looked at several William Anderson's, never did I try variations of David ... I am lost for words. This is more helpful than you can imagine.

I must read the rootschat tips etc before I make further posts. I don't think my messages are going to the right place and people.

Hi

Can anyone please tell me when William Davis Anderson departures England and sailed to New Zealand. Where am I able to find records of his departure? , if known!

I'm lead to believe William Davis Anderson is my great x 4 grandfather. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, Jennifer, and welcome to Rootschat. The obituary Lucy2 mentions, says that William was 69 years in the colony, when he died - that makes his arrival 1831. There are unlikely to be any New Zealand records that old. You may find something by seaching Australian newspapers on Trove - there are issues back to 1803 there.
