Trying to find Boddy

If anyone has any family connections to the Boddy family of Cumberland, and knows of relatives who emigrated to the West coast of New Zealand early in the twentieth century, I would love to hear from them. I have no dates, only a Susan Mary Boddy who married a Richard Southward; Richard is said to have been a coal miner as that was his occupation when he reached NZ. Any information very gratefully received.

Also a James Boddy born c1854 - he said in Wales - who went to Cornwall and married Anastasia Sullivan in 1875 before emigrating.
