Andy you have certainly gone beyond the call thanks. My great grandfather James Francis was alleged to have been born 7th August 1833 Liverpool unable to be authenticated. I've tried...the eldest sons for the next 3 generations have that name. I know the ship he came to NZ on in 1857. Going backwards has been difficult because I only started searching after most family left are not interested. I have a family crest and motto and know they are definitely Church of England. All the history in NZ I have.I believe the family moved to Wexford temporarily so your assumption of him being a merchant possible two generations in Christchurch were connected to the trade of harbourmaster and harbour pilot. I really appreciate your time Vicki
