Earl Granville
Ship: 900 tons
Captain: Cambell
Surgeon Superintendent: Dr. Charlton Fox
Sailed Plymouth 29th November 1879 - arrived Auckland 4th March 1880

The barque Earl Granville, a fine iron vessel of about 900 tons, commanded by Captain Campbell, under charter to the Shaw Savell Co., arrived at Auckland on 4th March 1880. She sailed from Plymouth with 318 Government immigrants, and ten days after leaving the Channel measles and whooping cough broke out among the children. There were in all about fifty cases, but only three children died. Whe the vessel reached port there were six cases of low fever, Dr Fox being one of the victims. Dr Philson, health officer, ordered the vessel into quarantine, and she proceeded to  Motuihi, where all the passengers were landed. This was the only voyage made to New Zealand.

BROWN family:
Samuel Brown and his wife Martha Caley emigrated with their 8 children: Samuel, Mary Ann, Eliza, Emma, Louisa, William, Thomas & George Henry and settled in Thames where Samuel was a farmer. I have birth dates for the children but most of  my information concerns Emma Brown (1868-1935) and her descendants. Emma was born in Hucknall Torkard, Nottinghamshire. Emma married Robert William Cargill (1845-1924) at Thames in 1884 and they had 11 children (10 of whom survived into adulthood). If you have a connection to this family you are welcome to contact [email protected]
