Hi there  please I am needing help with a family.

Thomas LAIRD  born 1814  Blairgowrie, Perthshire, Scotland.   m Elizabeth Fyffe, fife fyfe
26 jun 1840  Angus, Scotland.
first son William born 1841  found the them on 1841 census.

Thomas LAIRD died in NZ 1851

So in that ten yr span, they had David 1844  Mary Robina 1846  Robenia F 1849 who died aged 8
Cant find their births   or shipping records for them.

Were the children born in Scotland or New Zealand?

Can't find them in either countries.    Wonder if they went to aust first.    I am really stuck
Thanks

I have a really old tree given to me.    But just dates nothing else.

Just wondering, have you found all the children in NZ or are their details from Thomas' DC?

The reason I ask is I had family emigrate whereby others were to follow with another family member but a change in circumstances i.e. the later arrival of others didn't occur.
