I am back from some time away from the earthquakes and am now finishing up Waddington Cemetery and Kimberley Cemetery.
Work will soon begin on Greendale Cemetery.

This may be a good source of information as the source of the Humms in Canterbury. http://www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/tei-Cyc03Cycl-t1-body1-d6-d39-d2.html
Here, too, is the passenger list for the Humm’s arrival in 1860: http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~ashleigh/Shipping/1860.May.GANANOQUE.Lyttelton.Times.html#top
They travelled to NZ with two children and ended up having a total of 11.
If you look at the listings for Waddington you will see a few Humms including Maria Louise wife of Samuel Humm and George Humm. The headstone for Henry Humm is one of those missing but a blog reader has provided some details.
