Hey there, hoping someone can help.

John William died in 1896 in droitwich.

William John, born 1888 came to NZ between 1888 and 1911 ( first record of him here )

On his death certificate it said he had been here 70 years at time of death, age 71...this would idicate that he was bought over at 1yr old...there is a death record of his mother that im waiting on from BDM....but i cant find any shipping list or information for WIlliams journey from England to NZ.....nothing....no hints, leads...just nothing....

does anybody have a fantastic resource and might be able to help?

Thanks
Tish
