Annie Darling c1865 – 26 May 1884

There are seven members of the Darling family buried in this Class 1 plot: Alexander Darling, his wife, and five of their children. Alexander and Agnes moved to Dunedin from Scotland via Australia, where the younger Agnes had been born. Alexander, their son, was an engineer who had lived in New Zealand, both in Nelson and Dunedin, for 4½ years at the time of his death aged 23. Annie Darling, his younger sister, died of “phthisis” – consumption or tuberculosis. Alexander may have come to New Zealand to join his father, who was also an engineer.
