Migration Maps

Where the settler ancestors came from, and where in New Zealand they made landfall. Green lines = Rainer’s side; orange lines = Abbey’s side.

Old World origins

Each dot is a settler ancestor’s birthplace. Arcs trace them to the New Zealand port they sailed into.

New Zealand landings

Four ports of arrival — Auckland, Wellington, Nelson, Port Chalmers. Each dot is sized by how many of our ancestors landed there. Arcs trace each settler from their port of arrival to the New Zealand town they finally settled in.
