Yes! My family all still live in New Zealand. I left Christchurch, New Zealand in 2002 (22 yrs old) to seek my fame and fortune (LOL) and now live in Toronto, Canada. I am a direct descendant of Daniel Eyles & Jane Primmer (who are my 4th Great Grandparents) and some of the first people to arrive in New Zealand in 1842 when they arrived in Nelson on board the Marry Ann.
Some New Zealand Notables I am a blood relation include:
Ex All Black Capt - Kieran Read (4th Cousin 1x Removed)
Ex New Zealand Cricket - George Cresswell (3rd Cousin 2x Removed)
Ex New Zealand Cricket Coach - Denis Aberhart (4th Cousin).
My mother is a 1st Generation New Zealander as her father came from the Shetland Islands in 1920 as a child with his parents. Her mother came from Australia, a descendant of a long line of Copper miners in South Australia (originally from Cornwall) and Irish Immigrants (her Father) to New Zealand in 1874.
My Father is a 3rd and 4th Generation New Zealander as his father's family came from Dundee, Scotland in 1880, and his mother's family came from England throughout 1842 to both Wellington (Children born and raised in Pipitea Pa and only spoke Maori) and Nelson (including the Eyles). Her Mother's family came across from Tasmania and the Channel Islands/Dorset early 1900's.
