Sorry, are you referring to the passenger list I put up for the 'Canterbury'?

If so, it definitely reads, Mrs. McKenzie, aged 17.

I had not seen the last two post from you
I have the ships log thanks my husband was a fisherman and he and I worked out where little Eleanor would be buried at sea I have her death from Scotland People
I rewrote it for my story and added where she would be and also where it had a 23 month baby died I added that she was my great aunt
It was an amazing story for Isabella  from a 16 year old to when she died in 1924 back home in Sandhaven Scotland
She brought my grandfather and his two sister's back in 1891 on the ship Ormuz from Melbourne a gentleman named James Lane boarded the Ship in Sydney the two were married in 1895 and she had a daughter named Ormuz sadly to lose her in 1911 ages 15 the couple also had a son but died a bay later so out of 8 babies three survived
My Grandfather and his two sisters Minnie and Jessie I have all their birth certificates from Wellington also Adams death they are entered in findagrave .Thank you so much ones more

Hi Elizabeth the spelling is neither here nor there as we need to remember the name was often written on shipping lists the way it was heard by the person making out the shipping list

Cheers Janette
