Alan John Carmont is my husbands 2nd Great grand father. At this stage I haven't been able to find which ship he arrived on. His sister Agnes Carmont arrived in 1851, I have records of Margaret, John Alexander and Catherine all living in NZ.

Alan married Susannah Bills in 1864, her family arrived on the Clifton in 1841 and she was born in Wellington in 1847. Susannah parents were Fredrick Bills and Mary Ann Hayes. The Carmonts, Bills and Bevan families all settled in Otaki the Bevan family had flax mills in the area.

Agnes and Margaret both married brothers by the name of Jenkins and there is information on the web, Agnes was very well known in the area for her nursing skills. I havn't found any info on the family in Scotland after the 1851 census which lists them as living in Dalbeattie Kirkcudbright, I wondered if the parents John Carmont and Elizabeth Caven came to NZ also but have so far not gound any info.
