  • Hamilton East Cemetery Heritage Walk.Pdf
    Hamilton East Cemetery one hour Heritage Walk 1 A brief background Hamilton was settled by the 4th Waikato Regiment in 1864 on Tainui land confiscated from Ngati Wairere and Ngati Haua. Militiamen were allotted an acre of land (0.4 ha) in Hamilton West or Hamilton East and some rural land, but life in the new settlements was hard and many soon left. Of those who remained, and the entrepreneurs and businesspeople who followed, many are buried in Hamilton East cemetery along with their descendants. The life histories of these people reflect the history, inter- relationships and cultural make-up of the township. The first settlers were predominantly British and Irish. Continental European, Chinese and Indian names on the memorial inscriptions indicate a slow increase of new immigrants in the early 20th Century. The Chinese men buried here were all from Guangdong (Canton) province and had probably been gold-miners. The small number of Maori graves is more a reflection of the cultural preference for burial at local urupa, though the Maori population in Hamilton was very low for many decades after European settlement. Hamilton’s technological history is reflected in the causes of death - over time, accidents involving land clearance and horse transport decrease, and rail, motor vehicle and industrial accidents increase. The number of children’s graves shows the high rate of child mortality in the late 19th Century, the result of poor housing, health care, sanitation, and diseases such as diphtheria, typhoid and dysentery. The 1918 “Spanish Flu” claimed the lives of many Hamiltonians, some being soldiers just returned from active service in the First World War.

  • The Waikato War of 1863-64 a Guide to the Main Events and Sites
    The Waikato War of 1863-64 A guide to the main events and sites Neville Ritchie About historic battlefields There have been numerous wars and skirmishes on New Zealand soil between Maori groups prior to European settlement, and the colonial wars between Maori and European forces. Each battle affected the history and development of this nation to varying degrees and, in many instances, left tangible evidence on the landscape such as Maori pa, European fortifications and cemeteries. Historic battlefields evoke strong emotions of patriotism, sacrifice, valour, brutality and humanity. Unfortunately, the evidence of past battlefields is disappearing as urban development and modern farming practices modify the landscapes that dictated troop manoeuvres and positions, and ultimately, the outcomes of bat- tles, campaigns, and wars. It is important to protect and interpret battlefields and sites that influenced the course of our history, and to raise awareness of the importance of preserving them for future generations. The author Dr Neville Ritchie is the Department of Conservation's Waikato Conservancy archaeologist and is based in Hamilton. His previous works include Coromandel Gold, written in conjunction with Phil Moore. Acknowledgements Other DOC staff have contributed to the text and production of this booklet, notably (the late) Owen Wilkes, Bruce Postill, Des Williams and Bev Taylor. The Te Awamutu Museum assisted with historical information and allowed photo- graphs in their collection to be reproduced. Eris Parker of the Cambridge Mu- seum provided information about sites around Cambridge. My thanks to Waikato kaumatua, Buddy Te Whare and Tui Adams for commenting on the text from a Maori perspective.
