William Going and his wife Susanah together with TWO sons George (18) and John (10) came to Christchurch, New Zealand, on the "Caroline Agnes" sailed 19/4/1855, arrived Lyttelton 17/8/1855.
William died 1863, buried St. Mary's Church Yard, Halswell Chrischurch. Susanah died 31/8/1878 also buried same place.
John married Catherine Mary Dillon 10/12 1870 Catholic Cathedral Christchurch. He died 5/6/1910. Their daughyer Mary Matilda was my Grandmother.

George married Eleanor Mary Downey; parents Patrick Downey and Catherine Dougherty.

A Thomas Going came to Lyttelton, (Christchurch) on the "Castle Eden" arriving 7/2/ 1851. Shown as age 18 on passenger list. This would make him born 1830/31. Sounds like he is your Thomas and he and his brother married into the same family.

I live in Christchurch. Do you want me to investigate further.
