I have researching the Brogden Navies, "Recruits" for some ten years now and I have unable to locate a copy of the Passenger Shipping list for this voyage.
The only sources which maybe of assistance are the Southland Museum , in Invercargill, or if the Immigration records of the Port of Bluff for the time can be found.
From my other research of the 15 voyages carrying Brogden recruits, the Brogden recruits were kept separate on the Shipping Lists in some cases. Rollo Arnold has identified 1169 of the 2148 persons who immigrated under the auspices of John Brogden & Sons. I have further identified another 500 or so from other sources. Unfortunately those on the Zealandia have eluded me.
All the information from previous responses has been confirmed by my research.
I am able to add the following: (Invercargill) Sunday, 15 March 1874. " ..... ascertained that J Palmer one of the men sent I from Bletchington last year in the Zealandia, liv'd in the Town, I had an interview with him in the afternoon, found he was getting on well."

"While in Invercargill Holloway met some old acquaintances from acquaintances. James Palmer, whom he had recruited from Bletchington for Brogdens, told of wages of ten shillings a day, since he had arrived in New Zealand on the Zealandia on 4 January 1873. From Palmer, Holloway had good news of William Terry, a union man form Kirtlington, who also came out on the Zealandia, for Brogdens."
