1710 Issue of JOHN SHIEL(D)S & ANN McKEARNEY according to http://ouraucklandstuff.freeservers.com/CFJohnShields.htm
Note sure where this information is from.

Thomas looks right.
John and Hannah arrived in New Zealand in 1864 so that doesn't seem likely.
I can't find any birth information about Mary Ann. Maybe order her death record?
Can't find any birth for Catherine Shields but a death record is under Catherine Sheils (1872/7109)
However a Catherine Shields is described as being the daughter of Ann Shields in a police report:

1718 It is not clear from the notes from Waipu which of his two wives is the mother of these children. Leo Young ts gives only 1wife, Anne Armstrong. There appears to be a data error in the entry of the second wife, producing three wives in all. YOUNG, William Theodore (Theo) (I418)
 
1719 It is not clear from the Waipu document who the mother is. I have adopted the first wife. WHALEN, Ann (I491)
 
1720 It seems they lived in Stratford, Taranaki (according to Ancestry family tree, yennekcam1943). GRAY, Harold (I5116)
 
1721 It would appear that New Parks was obtained by some branch of the Clarkes in 1781; notice that this Thomas was born at Uffington in 1791. Although it's not clear, it seems that John Clarke is mentioned in A Temple Patterson, Radical Leicester, 1954, AUL 942.54 P31, pp 373 ff. There, a Clarke and Phillips own a bank (p. 373), which with other banks got into difficulties in 1837, and Pillips was the guiding owner of the bank. In 1843 this bank along with others failed, and the owners had to sell their estates: '... and Clarke's estate at New Parks between Ashby and Hinckley roads went partly to John Dove Harris ... and partly to ex Mayor Thomas Stokes' (p. 374). The author gives a reference to the Leicester Chronicle for 2 Sep 1843 and 20 Jan 1844. I notice that the Hinckley road runs to the west of the centre of Leicester. This property is also mentioned in A History of the County of Leicester, Victorian County Histories, p. 455.'The descent of the property becomes clear again in 1781, when it was in the hands of a Mr Clarke. The Clarke family remained the owners of New Parks until 1843, but it was subsequently divided between various owners.' p. 455. CLARKE, John (I1199)
 
1722 Ivan died in a car crash as he was returning home from Ardmore where he was attending lectures for his Electrical Engineering qualifications. He was driving alone in his car (an Austin Seven) which ran off the road and hit a power pole. He sustained head injuries and died the following day. SMITH, Ivan Ronald (I22)
 
1723 Jack died when he was young. Bill [William] Ward, Jocelyn's father, never met his uncle. WARD, John William (I04087)
 
1724 James Casey's death certificate has Mary O'Malley. MALLEY, Mary (I3494)
 
1725 James played representative cricket for his College, University-Grange and for Otago. He is currently playing professional cricket for Otago. He has had higher honours playing for the NZ A team also. He travelled with Kate and Matthew to Asia and the United Arab Emirates then on to the USA, following graduating from Otago University with a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology. He is currently studying for a personal training qualification and he lives in Dunedin.
Michael was awarded a Wolfe Fisher Fellowship in 1994 so Anne and Michael travelled to Canada, USA, England ,Wales, Europe .Kate and James met them in California for a holiday.
 
MCMILLAN, James Michael (I03847)
 
1726 Jane Clarke was enrolled in Little Omaha School at the start of 1884. He may have got mixed up about the year he returned to the district in his diary and actually returned in November 1883. Mary Anne Clarke died in August 1883. Or it's possible he sent some of the children back to live with relatives while he stayed on in Auckland.

1727 Jane Ward has half brothers Pete and David.

Also a brother Vic (not sure if full or half brother). 
WARD, Raymond (I5150)
 
1728 Jane Ward says he had 8 children all together.
Five are her half siblings from his first marriage.
Her half brother had a DNA test.
Her daughter Amy also had a DNA test with Ancestry (A.C.) 
Family: WARD, Raymond / (F1204)
 
1729 Jane Ward sent me these memoirs from her father:

I was born at Hatton bungalow, Witham Road, Woodhall Spa, Lincs. The third generation of the Ward family in Woodhall. My grandfather was a large farmer at Kirkstead, Woodhall Spa. He was one of the four names on the register when Woodhall and Horncastle were joined by just a cart track. One other name was Johnson the other two I don?t know who they were. My grandfathers house still stands, a lovely house which has been renovated carefully and modernised to a good standard. It stands near Mill Lane at Woodhall painted cream outside and stands almost in what used to be the farm stack yard. In the fields at the back of the farm there are still two cottages where two of the employees lived.

My father was one of five children, three brothers and a sister. My dad worked on the farm until the 1914-1918 war started when he had to join the army along with my uncle Bob who was killed in France in 1916. My father served in France and Germany before returning to Woodhall and then he joined the London North Eastern railway at Woodhall Junction as a porter. He worked there for several years until he made foreman.
My mother came down to work for a German countess in Woodhall as a servant. The family and my mother came from London, when my mother was 18 years old. Where she met and married my father. This point I?m not sure of as when my parents married it was before my dad went to war as Mum had two children a boy and a girl. The boy was my eldest brother George, the little girl died at the age of three and was buried in Lincoln her name was Maggi. I have a photo of her still. At this time my Mum lived in Lincoln at 34 Florence Street. I have been to Lincoln and found the house the family lived in when they were there.....

There is a bit more but mainly related to my dads own childhood. He does later say that Elsie is older than George so I?m not too sure which children had already been born when his dad went off to war.

She received her education at Wellesley Primary and Seddon Memorial Technical College, after which she worked as a dress machinist until her marriage in 1949 to Ronald Hubert Ingram who, at that time,was serving in the Royal New Zealand Navy.
After leaving the Navy, Ronald and his family built in Glen Eden where he operated a milk round for a number of years, and later a Stationery business in Glen Eden. Upon relinquishing the business, he joined the staff of Air New Zealand in 1970.
Ron & Joan moved to their new home in 1973 in Massey, Auckland. Ron retired from Air NZ in 1988.
After owning a small holiday home in Mt. Maunganui for a couple of years they decided to shift permanently into a new retirement village there in 1997.
