Wotherspoon, Scotland to New Zealand

I am a descendant of James Wotherspoon (1809-1896) and Margaret Waddell (1819-1908).
James Wotherspoon's parents were John Wotherspoon and Janet Spittal (married 30 September 1803, Old Monkland, Lanarkshire, Scotland.
James and Margaret had 9 children that I know of:
John (6 July 1838 - 3 March 1926)
William Waddell (16 Jan 1840 - ?)
Isabella (12 Sept 1841 - ?)
James (16 Dec 1843 - 10 June 1939)
Janet Spittal (Abt 1846 - 8 July 1899)
Margaret (8 July 1848 - 24 Sept 1940)
Mary (18 Nov 1851 - ?)
Christina (25 July 1857 - 31 Jan 1913)
Robert (28 Nov 1859 - ?)Of these, James, Janet Spittal, and Margaret all emigrated to New Zealand.
John became a successful manager and shareholder of A&J Stewart Ltd, a tubemaker in Coatdyke, Lanarkshire, Scotland.
Descendants of Christina live in Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland.
Robert is rumoured to have emigrated to Nova Scotia, married a woman called Agnes, and died in California or Florida.
