About Agnes Clark

According to [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Galbraith-1062] In the 1871 census Agnes is listed as living at 6 East Hamilton St, Greenock with her husband, children and uncle Alex. The family migrated to NZ in 1874, but there are photos of their old neighbourhood from 1877 [https://www.inverclyde.gov.uk/community-life-and-leisure/heritage-s...].

Agnes came to Wellington, NZ on the Strathnaver, departing 1 June 1874, when she was 27 years old. She came with husband Angus, Christina (8yrs), Janet (5yrs), Donald (3yrs) and Agnes (8 months). The fare was £50.15 paid for by the government.
