Thomas Butler - NZ- Lord William Bentinck 1841
Can anyone please fillme in on the family of Thomas Butler b. abt 1811 and came to New Zealand on the 'Lord William bentinck' departing on 8th Jan 1841 and arriving 19th May 1841. His wife was listed as Elizabeth and they had two unnamed (on the passenger list) sons with them aged 6 and two. I believe a daughter Mary Ann Bentinck Butler was born on board but I have some confussion about this as a family tree has her mother listed as being Mary? This Mary Ann Bentinck Butler married John bell on 1st August 1855 in St james Church, Lower Hutt and they had 14 children. I would like to try and find out more about the 'Butler' side of the family but any help is greatly appreciated as i would like to update my website to include the 'Butler' name.
