    St Peter’s, Upper Riccarton, is the graveyard of owners and trainers of the great horses of the racing and trotting worlds. People buried here have been in charge of horses which have won the A. J. C. Derby, the V.R.C. Derby, the Oaks, Melbourne Cup, Cox Plate, Auckland Cup (both codes), New Zealand Cup (both codes) and Wellington Cup. Area 1 Row A Robert John Witty. Robert John Witty (‘Peter’ to his friends) was born in Nelson in 1913 and attended Christchurch Boys’ High School, College House and Canterbury College. Ordained priest in 1940, he was Vicar of New Brighton, St. Luke’s and Lyttelton. He reached the position of Archdeacon. Director of the British Sailors’ Society from 1945 till his death, he was, in 1976, awarded the Queen’s Service Medal for his work with seamen. Unofficial exorcist of the Anglican Diocese of Christchurch, Witty did not look for customers; rather they found him. He said of one Catholic lady: “Her priest put her on to me; they have a habit of doing that”. Problems included poltergeists, shuffling sounds, knockings, tapping, steps tramping up and down stairways and corridors, pictures turning to face the wall, cold patches of air and draughts. Witty heard the ringing of Victorian bells - which no longer existed - in the hallway of St. Luke’s vicarage. He thought that the bells were rung by the shade of the Rev. Arthur Lingard who came home to die at the vicarage then occupied by his parents, Eleanor and Archdeacon Edward Atherton Lingard. In fact, Arthur was moved to Miss Stronach’s private hospital where he died on 23 December 1899.

    Woolston / Heathcote Cemetery Tour A colleague writes of Decra Art, principal sponsor of this tour: In 2000 I commissioned Decra Art to make a bronze plaque to mark a family reunion. While the plaque was expensive, the quality of workmanship was excellent and the service helpful and prompt. When I said that the site was not in Christchurch, they advised on packaging and installation and provided information to be sent to the appropriate local authority. I would certainly suggest that anyone seeking a permanent memorial approach Decra Art for advice and a quotation. Decra Art Ltd.

  • The Story of Christchurch, New Zealand
    THE STORY OF CHRISTCHURCH, N.Z. JOHN ROBERT GODLEY, The Founder of Canterbury. THE STORY OF CHRISTCHURCH NEW ZEALAND. BY HENRY F. WIGRAM. CHRISTCHURCH: PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY THE LYTTELTON TIMES Co., LTH I91B. 430 PREFACE. The story of the foundation and early growth of Canterbury was first told to me, bit by bit, more than thirty years ago, some of it by men and women who had actually taken part in the founding of the settlement, and shaping its destiny, and some by late-comers, who had followed closely on the heels of the pioneers. There were many people then living who delighted in talking of their strenuous life in the pioneering days, " when all the world was young," and in telling of events which are now passing into silent history. Many of the stories I heard then are still vivid in my memory, little episodes illustrating the daily life of a community which had to do everything for itself survey, settle, stock and till the land, build its own roads, bridges and railways, form its own religious, educa- tional, political and social institutions, and construct its own local government. It is no wonder that coming from the valley of the Thames, where the results of centuries of civilisation had come to be accepted as the natural condition of nineteenth century existence, I found the contrast interesting and inspiring. My wife and I were received with the kindly hospi- tality so typical of the time and country. Amongst our immediate neighbours at Upper Riccarton were many old settlers. Mr.

  • Clergy in the Diocese of Dunedin 1852-1919 a Biographical Directory of Anglican Clergy Who Served in Otago and Southland Compiled by Michael Blain (2003) 2
    Clergy in the Diocese of Dunedin 1852-1919 a biographical directory of Anglican clergy who served in Otago and Southland Compiled by Michael Blain First edition 2003 Copyright the Reverend Dr. Michael Blain, 2003 Reproduced online with permission at http://anglicanhistory.org Address inquiries to [email protected] Clergy in the Diocese of Dunedin 1852-1919 A biographical directory of Anglican clergy who served in Otago and Southland Compiled by Michael Blain (2003) 2 Introduction This biographical directory features all the Anglican priests who served in the southern regions of the South Island of New Zealand between 1852 and 1919. 1852 marks the licensing of John Fenton the first Anglican priest with pastoral responsibilities in the new town of Dunedin. 1919 marks the retirement of the first bishop of Dunedin, Samuel Tarratt Nevill. Between these two dates some 200 clergy came and went from Otago and Southland, the region served now by the Anglican diocese of Dunedin. All of them here receive attentive research. They prove to be a fascinating group of people, whose backgrounds, careers, and connections offer a unique insight into colonial Otago. George Augustus Selwyn, the bishop of New Zealand (from his appointment on 10 October 1841 to his resignation in May 1869) was the epitome of a missionary—going everywhere fast, staying nowhere long in his efforts to reach everyone in every place. He met the leading colonists and church members in Dunedin in 1848, but had no priest to offer them until after the two dozen ships and chaplains of the Canterbury Association had arrived two years later in Canterbury.

  • St Pauls Papanui Cemetery
    St. Paul’s Anglican Cemetery Tour Papanui Compiled by Richard L. N. Greenaway June 2007 St. Paul’s Papanui Cemetery 2007 1 Area 1 Row A No 1 Shead Just to the left as one enters St. Paul’s cemetery there is a gravestone with the wording: ‘In loving memory of Thomas Edward Shead, beloved son of J. and A. Shead, died 11 October 1882, aged 11 years and six months. Late of Phila., Penn., U.S.A.’ Atop the monument there is a striking sculpture of a handsome vigorous boy. It would seem that Thomas died of an illness. His parents, Joseph and Annie Shead, were living in Papanui at the time of their son’s death but do not appear to have remained long. No. 15 Thomson Edinburgh-born and the son of a printer, William Thomson worked as an accountant in Glasgow. He emigrated with his family, arrived in Canterbury in 1853 on the Hampshire, a vessel of about 600 tons. Theirs had been ‘a protracted voyage of five months’. Thomson attended the ball on Queen Victoria’s birthday – on 24 May – in Highland costume. The Lyttelton Maori ‘hearing of his costume, gathered along Norwich Quay to see the Taipo coming – rather peculiar considering their style of dress’. Thomson bought a property, ‘Hemingford’, at Governors Bay. It became the famous and beautiful property of sheepfarmer, scientist and conservationist T. H. Potts and was - and is - known as ‘Ohinetahi’. To get home the family had to travel by boat or walk along a very narrow track and pass through the big and little Rapaki Maori pas.
