  	This John's age and occupation match perfectly the John described in the emigration record, and John was not found in the 1881 census. The same goes for John's younger brother Thomas, age 20. John's daughter Anne also matched the "Annie", age 5 that appears in the record. Annie does not appear in the 1881 census either. The 5 people in the record are not described as a family unit, but given that we have a match for John, Annie, and Thomas, it is assumed that Harriet and Linda, 1 year old, belong with them, despite the fact that John's wife was called Ellen in the 1871 census. They left aboard the Caroline on Oct 12, 1875, but did not arrive in New Zealand until Jan 31, 1876, a full three and a half month journey.
