Observers praised the way he drained and developed the land, and his land sales enabled the erection of a small village at Waitoa. Partly because he paid low wages, he was for a time financially comfortable, but was forced into bankruptcy in 1888 due to the economic depression; most unusually, he paid his creditors in full.. Gould invested in mining in the Te Aroha district, including the fraudulent Waitoa ‘find’ close to his land. He was actively involved in the community, including in local government, where he preached the need for economical financial management. After helping to develop the district, he sought land to develop elsewhere, but died, prematurely, in an accident. FAMILY Charles Gould was born on 13 September 1856 to George, a storekeeper at Hambledon, near Christchurch, and Hannah, née Lewis.1 His father, an early settler, became a ‘very successful’ Christchurch businessman, who amongst other things was the first New Zealander to sent wheat to London and at one time was ‘about the largest exporter of wool’ from Canterbury.2 Upon his death in 1889 his obituary testified to his high reputation in the community: a man ‘of singular probity’, he had ‘a horror of sheer speculation, which he considered mere gambling’, and a well deserved reputation for ‘industry, honesty, and economy’.

  • A Tribute to Our Pioneering Families FOREWORD
    A tribute to our pioneering families FOREWORD SOME four years ago the cover of our monthly newsletter, the Eureka Express, depicted the first of a series of sketches of some of the district’s oldest homes which are still standing. From the research required to background these sketches the idea grew that it was time a more complete history of Eureka was recorded. However, the task proved far too time-consuming for our committee of busy wives and mothers. We needed a full-time journalist and, fortunately, two years ago one became available for nearly six months through a Labour Department scheme. We gained the services of Meena David, a qualified and experienced journalist just back from an overseas trip, whose sterling efforts saw our book take shape before she returned to Auckland to resume her career in journalism. Since then there has been a prolonged effort by part-time volunteers to complete the detail and prepare the text for publication. A debt of gratitude is owed Chris Irvine for his countless hours of research into Eureka’s titleholders and for his preparation of the accompanying maps to this section of the book. i Our sincere thanks for financial assistance must go to the MEENA DAVID Waikato Savings Bank, the Waikato County Council, the N.Z. Lottery Board and the Eureka Cull Cow Committee. MEENA DAVID was born in Madras, India, and educated there and in New Zealand. She graduated with a Bachelor of The assembling of this history has involved interesting Social Science from Waikato University, Hamilton, and later research and renewal of past contacts.

  • Hamilton Historic Cemeteries Heritage Walks Hamilton East & West Cemeteries
    Hamilton Historic Cemeteries Heritage Walks Hamilton East & West Cemeteries Hamilton East Cemetery, Hungerford Crescent: 90 min. Hamilton West Cemetery, Willoughby Street: 40 min. Research and text by Lynette Williams, Hamilton. It has been possible to present only a small selection of the many stories represented by the headstones in Hamilton East and West Cemeteries. We hope you will enjoy this insight into the history of Hamilton. 1 Hamilton’s history in brief. Hamilton was settled by the Fourth Regiment of Waikato Militia in 1864 on 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 left. Of those who remained, and the entrepreneurs and businesspeople who followed, many are buried in Hamilton East or West Cemetery along with their descendants. The life histories of these people reflect the history, inter- relationships and cultural make-up of the township and the Waikato. 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. The small number of Māori graves reflects the cultural preference for burial at local urupa, though the Māori population in Hamilton was very low for many decades after European settlement. Hamilton’s technological history is reflected in the causes of death – accidents involving land clearance and horse transport decrease, and rail, motor vehicle and industrial accidents increase. The number of children’s graves indicates 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.

Correspondingly, Te Rauparaha is well remembered in literature: in waiata, poetry, prose, and haka. He is men- tioned, for example, in Ahumai’s tangi for her Ngāti Tūwharetoa relative Te Momo,1 and he is also remembered for his own compositions, including his lament for his tribal homelands at Kāwhia, “Tērā ia ngā tai o Honipaka,” and the ngeri, “Te Hōkioi,” to warn Taranaki iwi of impending danger in the form of Waikato under Pōtatau Te Wherowhero (Royal). Te Rauparaha has fur- thermore been immortalized by non-Māori in, for example, Thomas Brack- en’s late colonial period poem, “The March of Te Rauparaha” (1890), while closer to the present day, the unsettling specter of Te Rauparaha both haunts and inspires the Cook Island Māori and European poet Alistair Te Ariki Campbell in his 1963 sequence of poems, Sanctuary of Spirits.

  • Huntly & District
    WDC District Plan Review – Built Heritage Assessment Historic Overview - Huntly & District Huntly Huntly has been known by many names: Rahuipokeka (various spellings), Coal Mines, Huntley Lodge, Huntly Lodge, and then, in 1877, simply Huntly. Prior to the Waikato War, Rahuipokeka was heavily- populated by Maori, with pa, kainga and cultivations along both banks of this stretch of the Waikato River. Rahuipokeka (resting place) ‘was where Ngati Mahuta gathered for games and deliberations’.1 Waahi pa, on the west side of the river, has been the home marae for the Ariki line of the King Movement since at least the 1890s. In the early part of the 19th century European visitors and traders travelled along the river; the CMS missions were just upstream at Pepepe and Kaitotehe and downstream at Maraetai and Kohanga. In the 1850s James Armitage farmed a short way downstream at Ohinewai. The presence of coal in the vicinity was known for some time before it was mined commercially; Rev. Ashwell reportedly gathering sufficient coal from an exposed face for his household needs. By 1850 Kupa Kupa [Kapakapa, Kupakupa] Mine, across the river from Huntly, was being worked for coal. Ferdinand von Hochstetter made the first official record of coal in the district in 1858.2 During the Waikato War, government steamers would be re-fuelled with coal mined from the river banks. The colonial government used the river during the invasion of the Waikato in 1863-64, but no military engagements took place at Huntly itself. By December 1863 a military camp had been established at Rahuipokeka, and in early May 1864 ‘whare building was being pushed on vigorously’ and there was a hospital treating ill and wounded men.3 The camp was abandoned by August 1864.

  • Historic Overview - Ngaruawahia & District
    WDC District Plan Review – Built Heritage Assessment Historic Overview - Ngaruawahia & District Ngaruawahia & District Ngaruawahia is the hub of a large area serving several smaller settlements, including Taupiri, Hopuhopu, Glen Massey, Te Kowhai, and Horotiu. The district’s villages do not have distinct boundaries and their environs merge with their rural setting. The histories of these places and the rural areas in-between have overall similarities but each was established for a distinct purpose during the 150 years since European governance was imposed. Only Ngaruawahia and Taupiri were intended from first survey to be ‘urban’ areas; Te Kowhai developed from a rural area with facilities added as the community required them; Glen Massey and Horotiu from particular industries requiring a workforce; and Hopuhopu, uniquely, from an Anglican Church mission grant that later provided a large open space handy to the Waikato River and North Island Main Trunk railway for acquisition by the government as a military training camp. The entire area was part of the land confiscated from Tainui after the Waikato War. Ngaruawahia and Taupiri were set aside for town settlements, but generally the rest was surveyed into parcels suitable for grants to militiamen or Maori claimants. Initially the Glen Massey area was developed in the late 19th century under three special settlement schemes. The Waikato and Waipa Rivers have determined the locations and, to some extent, the histories of Ngaruawahia, Taupiri, Hopuhopu and Te Kowhai. Ngaruawahia prospered from the river trade; so also to some extent did Taupiri as a port for rural areas to the east. The Great South Road and the North Island Main Trunk railway were pivotal for the development of Ngaruawahia, Taupiri, Horotiu, and, to a lesser extent, Hopuhopu.

  • George French Angas and the Creation of Colonial Knowledge in New Zealand
    George French Angas and the Creation of Colonial Knowledge in New Zealand Catherine Falconer-Gray A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Victoria University of Wellington 2014 To Michael Kingston For Everything, Always i Abstract In 1844, George French Angas, the English traveller, artist, natural historian and ethnographer spent four months travelling in New Zealand. He sought out and met many of the most influential Maori leaders of the time, sketching and recording his observations as he went. His stated intention was to provide a ‘more correct idea’ of New Zealand and the New Zealanders. In Australia and then Britain he held exhibitions of his work and in 1847 he published two works based on this time in New Zealand: a large volume of full- colour lithographs, The New Zealanders Illustrated and a travel narrative based on his journal, Savage Life and Scenes in Australia and New Zealand. These exhibitions and publications comprised the nineteenth century’s largest collection of works about Maori and Maori culture. This thesis is a study of the ‘more correct idea’ that Angas sought to provide: his creation of colonial knowledge about Maori. Angas is most commonly described in New Zealand as being an unremarkable artist but as providing a window onto New Zealand in the 1840s. This thesis opens the window wider by looking at Angas’s works as a record of a cultural encounter and the formation of a colonial identity. The works were shaped by numerous ideological and intellectual currents from Britain and the empire, including humanitarianism and the aesthetic of the picturesque.
