  	Bridget Ryan Bap/Birth: 8 July 1837 Glanworth, Co Cork Roman Catholic Father: Edmond Ryan Mother: Catherine Stackpole Sponsors: John Ryan and Catherine Morgan Priest: Stephan Murphy (Also maybe born in Dublin as per stated on William Henry's birth, but this was done via an informant and not Bridget.

  Gender	Female
  Immigration	12 May 1855	from Liverpool, England via "Nashwauk" to Adelaide, South Australia, Australia   [2]
  	The Nashwauk was wrecked at the mouth of Pedler's Creek. She was carrying 300 Irish immigrants including 130 single girls bound for Adelaide. All passengers and crew were taken ashore, and either via boat or walked to Adelaide the next morning. There are 2 Bridget Ryan's aboard this ship. One aged 24, a Dairy Maid, but also a Bridget Ryan aged 19, Domestic Servant. Even though Bridget would really only be about 16/17yrs at this stage many girls put their ages up so that they could immigrate, and as she was going to go and stay with an Aunt this is a good possible for our Bridget.

  	Mrs John KEMP, Mount Cargill whose remains were interred in the Waitati Cemetery on Sunday, was one of the pioneers of the neighborhood. Mrs Kemp was one of the first residents of Mount Cargill. Arriving in New Zealand in 1862, the deceased lady and her husband settled in the district, and took up land. She lived at Mount Cargill till the time of her death. She took an active part in the Presbyterian Church services held at the Schoolhouse. The Rev. Wm. Grant, of Port Chalmers, officiating at the graveside, referred to the many sterling qualities of the deceased as a settler and friend, her quiet, unassuming, sympathetic nature undearing her to all who came in contact with her. Mrs Kemp is survived by her husband, three sons, four daughters, a number of grandchildren and great grandchildren.
