Kin(g)(s)man descended families in Australia and New Zealand

There have been several Kingsmans who emigrated to Australia or New Zealand, mostly as assisted passengers, but at least one as a transportee.

Most of the emigrants have been female, so there are very few actually carrying the Kingsman name, though there are many of Kingsman descent.

This section currently references back to the other pages for the individuals who emigrated and their descendants, as well as to some fragmentary trees and isolated references from various Australian sources.  If you can help link any of these in then please contact me.
