Talofa Ian,
My name is Christina Laban and I live in Wellington, NZ. My father's name is David Laban, son to Jack Laban, who is the son of Fred Laban who is the 6th child of 15 sibblings born to William Laban who married Ioka Fata from Afega. William Laban was the son to Peter Jacob Laban the Danish trader/pharmacist who married Samila Jacob a part Tuvaluan and part European woman.
It appears that all who have posted messages/responses to your search are related in one way or another. Its awesome to make the contection.
Just wondering, whether all who have posted responses are decendants of Peter Jacob (D.O.B. 1840) and Samila Laban (of Tuvalu)?
I look forward to your responses, please feel free to email me on
