Hello, I am looking for the Passenger list for the Padishah, left Gravesend 1 Dec 1879 and arrived Port Chalmers NZ 22 Feb 1880.  Hoping someone knows where to look on line .  TIA

Hi

Not sure if this is any good, it doesn't look as if there is a passenger list

Thanks

My two young ladies were Annie Willan and Margaret Shaw.  The sisters were sent to NZ to be with their uncle Simon Harker when their mother died.  They were def in NZ in 1883 when Annie married.  We are pretty sure they were on the Padishah as there was a little book given as a gift with the ship name, and dates, but we just want to confirm. 
The Padishah made 2 trips to NZ arriving in 1880, but I am after the first trip which left England in 1879.
