KAWERAU is a town in the Bay of Plenty region of the North Island of New Zealand.
The town is situated 100km SE of Tauranga and 58km E of Rotorua

Kawerau is one of the youngest towns in New Zealand. It was founded in 1953 as a mill town for the new Tasman pulp and paper mill. The site for the mill was chosen because of the ready availability of geothermal energy, water from the Tarawera River and the large supply of pine timber from the nearby Kaingaroa forest.

Unlike most other towns of its size, Kawerau was carefully planned before construction. The town was built with an impressive number of facilities, to accommodate a multinational specialist workforce.

The mill continues to drive the local economy and greatly influences the fortunes of the town. The town's population peaked in the early 1980's (8718 in the 1981 census) but has declined significantly since then due to the restructuring of the mill and associated industries

Alexander Rankin sailed from London 25 March 1841 on the Tyne with his wife Elizabeth & 5 children: Margaret aged 19, Andrew aged 17, William aged 15, unnamed son aged 12 & unnamed daughter aged 9.
They arrived into Port Nicholson (Wellington) 9 August 1841
NOTE On the ships list he is 40 (birth date of 1801), at his death he was recorded as age 69 (birth date of 1798) & thanks to LeonieMolloy's comment below, his death certificate has his age as 77 (birth date of 1790)

Alexander, with his family, settled in Collingwood, Nelson as a Baker. He also opened a Fruit & Green Grocery Shop in Collingwood St (next door to Trask and Cook, the butchers) in 1866

In December 1847 Alexander wrote a letter to Major Richmond welcoming him and his family to Nelson. Alexander signed it as Chairman of the 'Working Class'

In April 1863 an Extraordinary Public Meeting (by all accounts a very disorderly meeting) was held in regards of the 'unnatural crime' of the Rev. H. M. Turton. Alexander was chosen as one of the newly founded committee.

In September 1864 the 'Black Diamond' sank at Coixelles Harbour, Marlborough with some people drowning. Alexander and his wife were thanked by the master of the boat, Captain W. H. Hayes

On 23 January 1866 Alexander's grandson, Alexander Rankin died aged 17, 3 weeks after diving in the Matai river on New Years Day of 1866 in an attempt to save a young lad, Frederick Gibson, who drowned when cramp seized him.
- young Alexander never recovered from the cold he caught
- he was the eldest son of William Rankin, son of Alexander & Elizabeth
- (his father William was away as a Volunteer in Waikato at the time)

Alexander Rankin died 24 August 1867 at his residence, Collingwood Street aged 69, 7 months after the death of his grandson Alexander
he is buried in PLOT 081, BLOCK 03, AREA Old Presbyterian at Wakapuaka Cemetery

I do not know who wrote his Epitaph.
It was taken from the COLONIST 10 Sep 1867 (Papers Past) and signed simply D.B.
the EPITAPH of Alexander Rankin

Here lies, at rest, this little bank in,
Old, honest, ALEXANDER RANKIN,
Here his mortal journey closes;
Here, in silence, he reposes;
Not a care his heart encumbers;
Not a dream breaks on his slumbers;
Deep the sleep that now hangs o'er him;
Long the rest that lies before him.

What he thought, sound sense adjusted;
What he said, was greatly trusted;
Did still, as he would be done by;
Though in doing, there was none by.
Took delight in honest measure;
Counted duty double pleasure.
Had the will to make man better;
But the power the wish would fetter.

Many ills in life beset him;
But to meanness could not get him.
Want and poverty, he ken'd them;
But by diligence did end them.
Kindly to the humble, ever;
Stooping to the proud one, never.
Sturdy independence swayed him,
Till, at last, in earth they laid him.

Hope, that gilds the coming morrow;
Grief, that wrings the heart with sorrow;
Joy, that lights the eye with gladness;
Love, that fires the veins with madness;
Wealth, that every mind enriches;
Fame, whose trumpet tongue bewitches,
Knock at they heart in vain; ah! never
Shall they be his again. For ever!

Here around his letter'd marble;
Summer's vocal children warble.
There the cloud-capp'd hill above him;
Looks as if it said, "I love him."
Far below, the tranquil waters
Sweetly smile, lie beauty's daughters,
Bright in noon-day splendor glancing;
Zephyr-courted wavelet, dancing.

Ye who trace those simple numbers;
Soon, like his, may be thy slumbers.
Ye in youth and beauty springing;
Hearts in hope and gladness singing;
Ye who tread those green paths over;
Aged step, and youthful rover;
Such thy fate is - all are mortal -
All must enter Death's dark portal.

the Epitaph of Alexander Rankin was taken from the COLONIST of 10 September 1867 through Papers Past
- the unknown author signed - D.B.

Here lies, at rest, this little bank in,
Old, honest, ALEXANDER RANKIN,
Here his mortal journey closes;
Here, in silence, he reposes;
Not a care his heart encumbers;
Not a dream breaks on his slumbers;
Deep the sleep that now hangs o'er him;
Long the rest that lies before him.

What he thought, sound sense adjusted;
What he said, was greatly trusted;
Did still, as he would be done by;
Though in doing, there was none by.
Took delight in honest measure;
Counted duty double pleasure.
Had the will to make man better;
But the power the wish would fetter.

Many ills in life beset him;
But to meanness could not get him.
Want and poverty, he ken'd them;
But by diligence did end them.
Kindly to the humble, ever;
Stooping to the proud one, never.
Sturdy independence swayed him,
Till, at last, in earth they laid him.

Hope, that gilds the coming morrow;
Grief, that wrings the heart with sorrow;
Joy, that lights the eye with gladness;
Love, that fires the veins with madness;
Wealth, that every mind enriches;
Fame, whose trumpet tongue bewitches,
Knock at they heart in vain; ah! never
Shall they be his again. For ever!

Here around his letter'd marble;
Summer's vocal children warble.
There the cloud-capp'd hill above him;
Looks as if it said, "I love him."
Far below, the trangquil waters
Sweetly smile, lie beauty's daughters,
Bright in noon-day splendor glancing;
Zephyr-courted wavelet, dancing.

Ye who trace those simple numbers;
Soon, like his, may be thy slumbers.
Ye in youth and beauty springing;
Hearts in hope and gladness singing;
Ye who tread those green paths over;
Aged step, and youthful rover;
Such thy fate is - all are mortal -
All must enter Death's dark portal.
D. B. - Nelson, 1867

James Balfour Wemyss was a 19th century Member of Parliament in Nelson, New Zealand. He represented the Suburbs of Nelson electorate in 1861, from 28 Jan to 21 May, when he resigned

James was born in 1828 in Fiefeshire, Scotland
- he died in ? - a link below mentions that in August 1903 an old Marlborough resident, Alexander McLauchlan, died and that he was at one time a manager of Bankhouse for the late James Balfour Wemyss of Burleigh

He married Mary Ashton SMITH on 23 March 1857 in Nelson
- he sat for Nelson suburbs in the House of Representatives in 1861
- was at one time Provincial Secretary of Marlborough
- he was a runholder in the Wairau district, but returned to England in the early 1870s
- he lived at Wemyss Hall, Fife, Scotland

One of their daughters, Mary Elizabeth Wemyss married Sir William Henry FEILDEN, 2nd baronet (1812-1879) of Feniscowles, Lancashire
- they had 7 children
- their 2nd son, Henry Wemyss Feilden (1838−1921) was a British Army officer, Arctic explorer and naturalist.

In the mid 1840s, the land in Nelson that is now known as Ara was a sheep station called Bankhouse, leased in 1847 from the Crown.

One of the earliest settled properties in the region, it was named by one of its first residents, James Balfour Wemyss, after a property of the same name owned by his family in Scotland.

The station was developed in the 1840s by Sir David Monro, who went on to become New Zealand Parliament?s speaker from 1861-70. In 1848, Dr. David Monro, as he was then, plus five men and two horses, drove 1000 merino sheep purchased in Australia from Nelson to Bankhouse.

Three houses have been built on the land: a mud house erected by James Wemyss, then a cottage on the banks of the Waihopai River, burnt down in 1886, then the homestead that stands on the site today, which was built in 1887.

In 1915, merino wool produced at Bankhouse won a gold medal in San Francisco and had further success in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The same year, the land was divided into three for David Monro?s grandsons, later to become the Shield family.

Much of the Bankhouse property was placed on the market in November 1999, with the potential to become a significant vineyard.
