Hi Tony:
In response to your query and the info from Marian Buller I would like to comment of Rev. James Buller.We were in New Zealand several years ago and on south island there are literally dozens of businesses named Buller, rivers names Buller., etc.
Upon further research we went to Christchurch and followed up on Rev James Buller.He started a church there (Methodist) and was a very influential man.We visited his church and obtained a lot of information about him from the church and from the local library.
My branch of the Bullers came from Hollan, Priussia, Russia, kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Montanta and finally to California.i was interested in tracing back beyond Hooolnd the line line.Oral informatiopn has it that there were two brothers, on in Holland and one in England.It appears Rev James Buller came from the England line.Have not been able to verify these two brothers but found the NZ line and Sir Walter and Rev James line very interesting.
We travel doing volunteer church building but if you want to contact me in April we will be home where I have all the material on Rev James, if you are interested in it.Be happy to share what I have.
