Thomas Anson Buckingham came to New Zealand with his cousin Philip Wharton Goldsmith in 1879, and, influenced by their reports, Thomas senior decided to follow with the rest of the family. They sailed on the Waitangi on 5 January 1882, arriving 105 days later at Lyttelton on 21 April. They stayed for a while at Sudeley Farm, Irwell, which was being managed by Philip Goldsmith, and then Thomas decided to go south with Thomas Anson, buying a farm at Drummond in the flat centre of Southland. The two girls returned to Canterbury, Clara to the Overtons, whose property adjoined Sudeley Farm, and Lucy to the School for the Deaf in Sumner, where she taught until she married the Reverend John Alexander Lochore in 1900.
