Johan Alexander Gilfillan was the brother of my great,great grandfather Adam Gilfillan, and another brother William Frederick Anderson Gilfillan. Adam and William came to South Africa as 1820 Settlers, and John Alexander went and settled in NZ during 1841 in the Matarawa valley. After the murder by Maoris of John`s wife Mary and three of their children, John and the remaining two children emmigrated to Australia. The daughter, Sarah ,that survived the attack, wrote a report of the murders, and send it to her uncles in South Africa, of which the original is still in the our possesion. Johan Alexander Gilfillan died in his house at Collingwood cottage, Glasgow street, Melborne on 11 February 1864. Thank you for the opportunity to a small piece of information of my ancestors. Johan Gilfillan.
