I'm trying to find a passenger list for John Baptists Moulin and Rachel (Windet Rowe) Moulin. They were in Jersey and ended up in Dunedin. I'm not sure if they went elsewhere first? They possibly had children with them but had another 5 in NZ. Thanks.

The NZ part easy to find ....just that mystery trip from Jersey...probably 1875 to 1878 ish....

Might Francois & Susan Moulin 1873 be related?

Those are my actual gg grandparents. I have all their information (descendants and their travel to NZ etc but now going sideways as I can't find Francois's death anywhere ...only Susan's.
Some other people have made awful errors on their family trees and have claimed that there was a Frank Alexander born to Francois and Susan in 1880 ...which is wrong. Their three kids were born in Otago and one born and died early. But I looked up this other Frank Alexander and he was born to John Baptiste Moulin and Rachel Winder Rowe.
I want to find Francois's siblings to try and find their families for clues as to where my gg grandfather Franco is Marie Moulin born in St Brieuc in France in1850, ended up! That's my goal.

Thanks everyone and please give me any tips if you can.

That is very interesting too... they must at least know each other if not brothers or cousins? All arriving in Otago about the same time and having all been living in Jersey.
