Charles SPURGEON was born in Kelvedon, Essex, Spurgeon's conversion to Christianity came on 6 January 1850, at age 15. On his way to a scheduled appointment, a snow storm forced him to cut short his intended journey and to turn into a Primitive Methodist chapel in Colchester where "God opened his heart to the salvation message." The text that moved him was Isaiah 45:22 - "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God, and there is none else." Later that year on 4 April 1850, he was admitted to the church at Newmarket.

His baptism followed on May 3 in the river Lark, at Isleham. Later that same year he moved to Cambridge, where he later became a sunday school teacher. He preached his first sermon in the winter of 1850-51 in a cottage at Teversham while filling in for a friend. From the beginning of his ministry his style and ability were considered to be far above average. In the same year, he was installed as pastor of the small Baptist church at Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire, where he published his first literary work, a Gospel tract written in 1853

Charles wrote:
Why Do You Go To Church?
Some go to church to take a walk,
Some go there to laugh and talk,
Some go there to meet a friend,
Some go there their time to spend,
Some go there to meet a lover,
Some go there a fault to cover,
Some go there for speculation,
Some go there for observation,
Some go there to doze and nod?
The good go there to Worship GOD

from Charles Haddon Spurgeon, a Biography:

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-92) was England's best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. In 1854, just four years after his conversion, Spurgeon, then only 20, became pastor of London's famed New Park Street Church (formerly pastored by the famous Baptist theologian John Gill). The congregation quickly outgrew their building, moved to Exeter Hall, then to Surrey Music Hall. In these venues Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000?all in the days before electronic amplification. In 1861 the congregation moved permanently to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle.
Spurgeon's printed works are voluminous, and those provided here are only a sampling of his best-known works, including his magnum opus, The Treasury of David. Nearly all of Spurgeon's printed works are still in print and available from Pilgrim Publications

The ship AVALANCHE 1,161 tons, owned by Shaw, Savill and Albion Co., Captain W. Bishop, sailed from London 22 Oct 1874 with a total (including crew) of 371 souls, from England (222), Ireland (23), Scotland (5), Channel Islands (2), arriving in New Plymouth 22 Jan 1875 with 260 passengers for that port. After just 12 hours she was cleared and proceeded to Wellington to disembark the other 59 passengers. The 'Herald' said she was the first immigrant ship to call there for twenty years - but not, the Anne Longton (at least) arrived 27 Aug 1860.
* After completing three successful voyages to Wellington she came to grief when starting out again in 1877, bound for Wellington with 60 passengers. She collided in the English Channel with an American ship, and went down in a few minutes, with all the passengers and crew, a total loss of 99 souls — only three of the crew were saved.

The Arrival Of The Avalanche
The ship 'Avalanche.' Captain Bishop, made the offing early yesterday morning, dropping anchor in the roadstead about 7 o'clock. This is the first immigrant ship that has visited the port for nearly twenty years and the event is one of great importance to the Province. No sooner was the vessel signalled, than active preparations were made for landing the passengers. The Health Officer (Dr O'Carroll)
and Mr Hulke, the Immigration Agent, went on board and having inspected the immigrants, the single women were placed in the boats and brought ashore first, after which the remainder of the passengers were landed as fast as the boats could pass to and from the ship. By the time the first cargo boat reached the shore, a large number of persons had assembled on the beach, which had a lively appearance throughout the day. The passengers together with their luggage were landed carefully and expeditiously and Messrs Boswell & Co deserve every credit for the manner they carried out their work.
The 'Avalanche' was built under the immediate superintendence of Captain Bishop, in the well known yards of Messrs Alexander Hall & Co of Aberdeen. Her length is 215 feet; beam 36 feet, with a depth of hold, 21 feet' nett tonnage, 1.160 tons, but she will carry nearly 2,500 tons, her registered measurement being 1,210 tons. She is an iron ship of the highest class; her lower masts are tubular iron, being made out of boiler plate; her fore and main yards and lower fore and main topsail yards are also iron. She is calculated to carry 350 adult immigrants. She has nine patent ventilators through her decks, besides hatchways and side lights. She is fitted according to 'Lloyd's specification in every respect and has on board a steam winch and steam windlass for weighing the anchors. She was built expressly to the order of Messrs Shaw, Saville & Co, and intended for the New Zealand trade.
The 'Avalanche' was christened by Mrs Bishop, the captain's wife; and the name was suggested by Mr Temple, of the Alpine Club, one of the partners of the firm of Shaw, Saville and Co. She was launched on the 29th August last. Her saloons are admirably fitted; the side cabins are fitted with standing berths, under which are placed drawers for passenger and all the conveniences which tend to mitigate the dreariness of a sea voyage. The walls are lined with polished bird's-eye maple, inlaid with teak; the ceilings are pure white, with gold mouldings. The captain's cabin is very spacious and furnished with polished walnut fittings. The chief saloon has no mast running through it and is very spacious. The side hand-rails are teak (polished), with electro-plated mounts. The partitions, &c., are all polished bird's-eye maple, inlaid with teak. At the entrance is a curved sideboard, of white marble; around which runs a handsome brass railing. A large looking-glass, surmounted by a clock, runs the length of this and forms a handsome ornament to the saloon, which is will lighted by a clerestory skylight, glazed with bent ornamental matted glass. The ceiling is painted pure white and ornamented with gilt mouldings. On each side of the various passages leading to the cabins are small brackets gilt, picked out with blue and vermilion. The seats are provided with reversible backs padded, with velvet covers and carved ends. The general effect on entering the cabin, is that it is very light and cheerful and the fittings resemble those of a yacht, more than of a trader. Evidently, Messrs Shaw, Saville and Co. have an eye to preserving their laurels and prevent them being wrested from them by the New Zealand Shipping Company. Her decks are spacious; there are four deck-houses for the men, besides accommodation for twenty-seven more in the forecastle. Adjoining the deck-houses is a well-arranged galley and cook-house and nect to this the donkey engine, for working the steam winch and windlass. Between decks she has seven feet of head-room and although lumbered with the passengers luggage, &c., appeared very spacious,
The department for the single women is divided off and inaccessible except from the poop, behind the saloon. No intermingling of the passengers has been allowed during the passage. The married people occupied the middle of the 'tween decks; while the single men were forward and, during the passage were not allowed further aft than the mainmast and could communicate with the other ends of the vessel by signal only. In every respect she may be looked upon as a model for emigrant ships. The passengers, nem. com., express themselves very well pleased with the treatment received on board - with the one exception of being on short allowance of food, the scale not being sufficiently large to meet the demands of a healthy appetite.
The 'Avalanche' has on board a silver cup for the Wellington Regatta, presented by Messrs Shaw, Saville & Co. .. much more

John UDY was born in St Winnow, Cornwall, England on 30 Oct 1835

from NZETC:
... Councillor John Udy is the second son of the late Mr. Hart Udy, senr. Arriving in New Zealand with his father, he attended a school in Wellington, and after a few years came to the Wairarapa district, working at general farm work, till he joined his father and brothers in the Matarawa sawmill. When his father retired from the sawmill, Mr. Udy commenced farming on his own account. In 1881 he resumed sawmilling, settling at Waihakeke, which mill he is prepared to sell. His present holding, ?Waiakakariki,? some seven hundred acres in extent, is sown in English grass, and stocked with sheep and cattle. Mr. John Udy and his brother, Mr. William Udy, were the first to open out the flax industry in the Carterton district.

The subject of this notice constructed a bridge over the Ruamahunga, twenty-five feet in height, which was used for getting over logs to his sawmill. He is married, and has ten children.

With his father and brothers he served in the Greytown Rifles for five years, under Captain Boys. At one time Mr. Udy took active interest as a member of the Greytown Cricket Club.

John Udy was a son of Hart UDY & Jane CLEMENCE of Bodmin, Cornwall who emigrated to New Zealand with 4 children from Plymouth on the 5 October 1839 on the
DUKE OF ROXBURGH
They arrived in Port Nicholson (now Wellington) on the 8th February 1840. They had another 5 children in New Zealand.

In March 1845 their home was pillaged by Maori - their home was not far from Boulcott`s Farm
In 1853 they moved to Stokes Valley which is 11km north east of Waiwhetu. There he set up a sawmill and stayed for 4 years when they again moved to a 400 acre block of land at Matarawa which is 65km north east of Stokes Valley - over the Rimutaka Hill and a little north east of Greytown in the Wairarapa there he set up another sawmill.
