 Thanks Lucy2 and Minniehaha for the information on the Shetland Islands family of George Gair Hunter. I have passed it on to the person I am helping and she is delighted.

If either of you manages to get details of George's married  sister who came to New Zealand I would be really grateful.

Thanks again for all your help. Orkrad.

Hi there

AM interested in the HENKE family mentioned here.  Three Henke families left from Prague to New Zealand in 1874 on the "Prague" then the "Sussex":

• Carl 36, Bertha 33 and children Elise 11, Frederick 9, Carl 7 , Johan 4 , & Ida 2m.
• Heinrich 44, Auguste 34, Emily 17, Franz 15, Otto 13, Heinrich 11, Frederich 9, Auguste 6, Leonhard 4 & Wilhelmine 6m
• Wihelmine 46 daughter Wilhelmine 21 Albert 15 and Franz

I am wondering if these families were all related?  My gt Grandfather was Heinrich born 1856 and married a Scotland woman before living in South Africa and then Australia.  Trying to find his family and am hoping this may be a link to them.

Hi again

As mentioned on your other thread, I will get back to you. 
There is a lot of reading to be done and also checking of previous information .... and it all takes a good chunk of time.
