Does anyone have information about the following family? I would like to contact living family members as it appears we may descend from Michael's sister.

Michael Hamilton probably emigrated to NZ 1860s, and had been a fireman on a steamer on the Clyde, Scotland.
He died in Petone 14 Dec 1912.

I think Michael's children included Robert Wallace Hamilton who probably emigrated as a young child.
Robert married in 1895 to Mary Jane DRAPER, and their children, who attended Petone Central School included:
Gladys Muriel Annie Hamilton born 1896
Netta Victoria Hamilton (1897-1927) who married Arthur Ernest MORRISON in 1921, and was buried with her father at Karori. 
Wallace Ricketts Hamilton 1900-1934 married Rose Mabel HAISELDEN in 1929,
Phyllis Mary Hamilton born 1906.

Any assistance much appreciated.
