Fife / Re: David Herd - went to Australia and then onto New Zealand
« on: Tuesday 09 April 24 03:59 BST (UK)  »
I am a relative of David Herd & I am doing the family tree.  James Blair Herd was David Herd's father.
David Herd that married Hellen (Ellen) Kidd 1828 - 1909 and they had their first daughter Margaret in Scotland, before leaving from Liverpool on the Ticonderoga and landing in Melbourne on 22 December 1852.
Their second child John was born in Collingwood, Victoria and then they moved to New Zealand, landing in Nelson in December 1854.
Here is a list of their children:
Margaret Herd – 1852 – 1866
John Herd – 1854 – 1939
Ann Herd – 1856 – 1907
Elizabeth Herd – 1858 – 1863
David James Herd – 1860 – 1936
Hellen Herd – 1863 – 1931
William Henry Herd – 1865 – 1931
Alexander Palmer Herd – 1868 – 1925
Margaret Herd – 1871 – 1937 (the second Margaret Herd)
Thomas Riddell Herd – 1872 – 1956
Arthur Penrose Herd – 1874 – 1960

I am a descendant of Alexander Palmer Herd.
David Herd was the first person to grow wine in Marlborough.
Let me know if you would like more information.

Kindest regards
Carol
