The Lancashire Witch: New Zealand Immigration Ship 1856-1867 (Ancestral Journeys of New Zealand)
Belinda Lansley
The clipper ship Lancashire Witch was a very large, fine vessel which ferried four loads of immigrants to New Zealand. The "Witch" made two journeys to the Port of Lyttelton and two to the North Island, leaving many amazing stories in its wake. Waves like mountains, frightening snow and hail, and 28 tragic deaths. "Truly this is an ill-fated ship," wrote diarist David Carr. Using ship diaries and official documentation, the fascinating story of the Lancashire Witch has been retold. It includes passenger biographies and the fate of the ship's own "Lancashire Witch," possibly the most hopeless female immigrant to ever land in New Zealand.
