Children (8):
Family notes for Thomas GASKELL and Sarah FEARNS Thomas & Sarah together with their five eldest children emigrated to New
Zealand leaving London on 8th April 1851, arriving Canterbury NZ on 12th
August 1851, sailing on the good ship Labuan. [157]
It is interesting to note that the second youngest child, 3 year old
Martha,
travelled in 'paying steerage' class while the rest of the family
travelled 'steerage'. Very good to put the infant in a better class, but
who would look after her? And why was the 1 year old Harriet Ann in
'steerage'? [102]
