John is one of only a few who paid for his own passage, as the majority
were assisted with their passage as victims of clearance. The family
information is recorded in different forms on various web sites
including:

Nicholson, John - Inverness boat builder s.o (son of) Angus and
Euphemia McLennon
Catherine 24, Sutherland d.o. (daughter of) John Murry r &w (read and
write)
Euphemia, twin boys 41/2, Catherine 21/2

Also that John was aged 29, that his religion was Presbyterian, he
travelled 'on his own account' with his wife Catherine 24, 2 daughters
and 1 son! ( There are Scottish parish records of a marriage between a
John Nicolson and Catherine Murray in 1832 in Wick, Caithness,
Scotland. They had 2 daughters Euphemia b 1833, Catherine b.1836 and a
son Robert Horsburgh Nicolson b.1838, all in Tongue, Sutherland).

The family 'story/myth' was that John Nicolson (often spelt Nicholson)
had paid for a return voyage, and had gone out to Sydney as a surveyor
to meet Hobson who was about to carry out a land survey of New
Zealand..... I can find no evidence of this though!

All I do know is that John Nicholson, a ship and boat builder, was
living in Auckland by 1841. His son Angus was born in Auckland in 1842,
and the family are recorded in various 'Early NZ Settlers' records
including:

Auckland Police Census 1841-1845 :
John Nicholson, Status: Owner of Property, Occupation: Boatbuilder

Auckland Jury List 1849
Nicholson, John boatbuilder, albert st

Jury Services 1851-52

Hi

As you can see my name is Jenny. I am currently researching my family history but in the opposite way to normal! My grandfather was George Souter Duthie who came from New Zealand to Scotland about 100 years ago. He died when my father was only 5 so we know very little about the family in NZ though we did know he was the youngest of 10 children born to Catherine and Alexander Duthie. We also know that 4 of his brothers went to live in Australia, 2 did not marry, leaving three sisters and its their descendants I am currently trying to trace.

I put grandad's name into google not really expecting anything to come out and there it was - a list of the whole family - what I don't understand and am intrigued to find out is why it is on your website - are they part of your family too?

Please get back to me!

Best wishes

Jenny.
