Murray is descended from William Rosser who emigrated to NZ in 1877 with his wife Eliza (nee Etheridge (Whitchurch)) and three children.

William and Eliza sailed to NZ 25th November 1877 on the "Wanganui", arriving 28th February 1878 at Lyttleton.

William and Eliza had 4 children:- William Benhadad, Eliza Jane, Edward James & Milson (Henry) - added later when he married.

Eliza Jane married Charles Thomas McMeekin. Eliza and Charles were my mothers great uncle and aunt.

I have the death cert. for William Rosser (bn abt 1832)- informant was his wife - Eliza....though she did have a memory 'lapse' about where they married!
It does give the maiden surname for Martha though.
