Obituary for Walter John Morrison It was but the other day we had to announce the death of an old settler who had left the Province, we have now the same painful task in recording the demise, at Wanganui, of Mr Walter John Morrison, who died on Wednesday morning last, of inflammation of the lungs. Mr Morrison was well known in this Province and before the native outbreak held an office in the Provincial Survey Department. On the war breaking out in 1860, he was appointed a captain of the militia and when the military settlers were raised, had a company given him in that force. On his term of service expiring he settled on his land at Patea, where he remained till the Tito Kowaru outbreak took place in 1868, when, after serving for a short time in a military capacity, he took up his residence at Wanganui, where he was engaged in business to the time of his last illness. Mr Morrison had many friends here, who will read with regret this announcement of his death.
Wanganui Herald, 3 Nov 1885
Obituary for Mary Morrison On November 1st, at Wicksteed Street, Wanganui, Mary, wife of the late Walter John Morrison, of Taranaki and Wanganui, aged 58 years. Friends are informed that the funeral will leave her late residence, Wicksteed Street, this (Tuesday) afternoon, the 4th instant, at 6.30 o’clock. W. J. Wild, Undertaker.
As we feared would be the case, Mrs Morrison has succumbed to the painful affection from which she had suffered greatly during the last twelve months, ever since about this time last year when she had an operation performed. The deceased lady, who was the widow of the late Captain Morrison, of Taranaki, had been resident in Wanganui for a considerable number of years, having after the death of her husband conducted a successful boarding-school for young ladies. Mrs Morrison was a lady of a high and noble character, who was most esteemed and appreciated by those who knew her best and she will be much missed by those who leaned upon her for advice and counsel. Her daughter and her sister (Mrs Weston) will receive the genuine sympathy of the public in the great loss which they have sustained.

UP-RIVER SCHOOLS
Before proceeding to detail the progress which has taken place towards the founding of an educational establishment for the benefit of the youth of the Makirikiri (Upokongaro) district, which is to be inaugurated under the affiliated system, it will not be out of place to lay before our readers a brief extract, showing the working of this latest innovation in the programme adopted by the Education Board, from which will be apparent the special advantage thus accruing to remote or sparsely populated districts, where otherwise the establishment of schools would be next to impossible. The following outlines will answer the desired purpose:- AFFILIATED SCHOOLS. Whenever the average number of scholars on the roll of a Board school, taken monthly, shall fall below twenty-five for any six months, such school shall be subsidized as an affiliated school, two half-time schools counting as one school ...
The settlers of Upper Makirikiri, induced chiefly by the repeated representations of two of the settlers, Messrs Parker and Brownlee, forwarded a petition to have their district assisted by the provisions of this affiliated system and a grant of ‎£40 was promised by the Board, the settlers to contribute the balance of the required amount for the purpose of annual endowment, the only provision being that the schoolmaster, who was appointed to the post must be approved of by the Board. A Mrs McDonald is now temporarily conducting school in a room in her own house, but an acre of land having been granted by Mr Brownlee, the erection of the new schoolhouse will be proceeded with immediately. In order to distinguish the school from another of the same name near Marton and out of compliment to the donor of the site and who has been mainly instrumental in bringing the project to its at present stage, the school will in future be known as Brownlee. The distance from Kennedy's is about 6 miles and from 15 to 20 children will be benefited by the establishment of an educational institution in the locality. The timber will be on the ground in a few days and no time will be lost in hastening the completion of the work. A local school committee has been appointed, of which body Mr McClosky has been elected chairman and it is pleasing to observe the unanimity, earnestness and harmony which is the prevailing feature at their meetings.
The Brownlee is the first school which has been established under the affiliated system and the satisfactory working of the Act in this respect, as exemplified in its establishment and progress so far, should act as an inducement to other schools similarly situated, to go and do likewise.
The Upokongaro school will be reopened to-day, so Mrs Corden, the teacher, intimates. In reference to this last-named institution, we learn that when a claim still preferred by Mr Kennedy - and which we are given to understand is a just and legitimate charge - shall have been settled, the present schoolhouse will probably be converted into a dwelling-house and a new and more commodious building for accommodation as a schoolroom will then be erected. It is more than probable that the Board will recommend the payment of this loan, as it is admitted on all sides that this debt ought to be cleared off, so that we may expect to hear before long that the proposed alteration is in course of progress.
It is very reassuring to learn that the settlers in the Upokongaro district are making such praiseworthy efforts in order to secure the benefits of education for their children; and it is equally gratifying to be assured that the member of the Board for the district, Mr John Fleetwood, loses no opportunity of furthering and assisting such beneficial measures by every means in his power. At the meeting of the Board and privately, throughout the district, he is assiduously active in seeing to the necessities of the residents, in matters wherein his office is concerned. We look to this anxiety in matters educational, as one of the most promising features of the district and one of the surest indications that its population will prove self-reliant, energetic, united and progressive.

Mr Fleetwood moved "That the River Bank School be built at once, now that the title to the site had been made good" This was agreed to and the Board then adjourned (Tenders were ordered to be called for on 8 July 1876)

The Country Schools Mr Lee's Report ...
The River Bank (Upokongaro) - Mr Nelson has only been in charge two months. The late master was thoroughly incompetent. The school promises to do better work.
Brownlee - A small schoolroom has been built and for a time 14 children were schooled by Mrs Macdonald. At the time of my visit, the school was practically closed and since only 4 children are returned on the books. The settlers met me at Upokongaro and explained that it was useless for me to visit the school as they had been dissatisfied with the mistress and had taken away their children. It is a small affiliated school and the whole matter rests in the hands of the settlers who are responsible for stipend and can remove the teacher by giving her due notice. They have, however, failed to comply with the conditions of an affiliated school and do not seem to have understood their responsibility; but they now look to you Board to help them out of the difficulty.

Wanganui Chronicle, 10 March 1877
NORTH MAKIRIKIRI SCHOOL (To the editor of the Chronicle)
SIR, - In reading over Mr Lee's school report, I find that he says he was met at Upokongaro by the settlers, who were dissatisfied with me as a teacher and that it was useless for him to visit my school on that account. As my name has appeared in print, I think it but justice that the cause of this dissatisfaction should be publicly examined. I am at a loss to know wherein I have failed to give satisfaction, as I have done far more that the duties required of be by the Education Board. In October the Inspector wrote to me to the effect that on or about the 8th of the following month he would come up and see my school if I deemed such a visit of inspection necessary. I replied that I did think it highly necessary and hoped that he would come, not only to examine the children but also to enable him to judge of the condition of the school house and its surroundings. Several papers were forwarded to me from the Board of Education, which were to fill up and make ready for the Inspector's visit. All was duly prepared, the appointed time arrived, day after day and week after week passed, but no appearance of the Inspector. I had, further, prevailed upon my husband to stay at home for two complete weeks, which was a considerable loss to us, as he had only just them met with employment that he was sure of being paid for. Not that alone; but time after time I sent my little boy a distance of several miles in order to get a little butter or milk so that I might at least be able to offer the Inspector something in the way of refreshment when he arrived. So matters went on for a considerable time, no word having been sent to tell me that the Inspector had altered his intention with regard to paying the promised visit. However, the cruelty of two of the crew fully displayed itself. Not content with withholding from me my hard earned money, they actually went down, it appears, to dissuade the Inspector from coming to examine the children and thus give me at least the credit due me as a teacher. The small room referred to has never been finished, furnished of inspected. There is no approach to it, consequently it has never been used as a schoolroom; The decision of the magistrate with regard to payment, on the part of the settlers, has already appeared in your columns. Now, the school report distinctly points out that the settlers are responsible for my stipend. With their vaunted wealth of broad acres and sheep and cattle, surely they will now consent to pay their poor teacher and let her go. I am only waiting here for payment of the few pounds which are due to me, after which I hope to find another sphere of labour, either in Wanganui or in the district.
"l'homme propose et Dieu dispose" (Man proposes and God disposes) I am, &c., J. MACDONALD. Makirikiri North

SCHOOL COMMITTEES
UPOKONGARO - The following report was adopted at the school meeting on Monday last:- The retiring Committee of the Upokongaro School have much pleasure in calling the attention of house-holders to the commodious schoolroom which has been erected during the year and which was opened previous to the Christmas vacation. The Education Board have been applied to for a further grant, to enable your Committee to provide better accommodation in schoolmaster's residence and complete fencing of playground etc. Should the request be complied with, the Upokongaro School will be all that can be desired. On the opening of the schoolroom an amateur entertainment was held. The thanks of the community are due to the ladies and others who very kindly rendered their assistance on this occasion. The proceeds, after paying some necessary expenses, were applied to taking all the children to Chiarini's Circus and the balance has been expended in the purchase of prizes, which have been given to the children. The school is gradually increasing and the average attendance last quarter was 32, being an increase of ten on last year. At the annual examination, held the first week in November, the Inspector expressed himself much pleased with the progress made. Twenty-seven children were up for examination, all of whom passed as follows:- First Standard, 8; 2nd Standard, 2; 5th Standard, 1. In conclusion we beg to express our appreciation of the kindly interest which Mr Nelson always takes in the welfare of the school and we consider the district fortunate in having secured his services. A. MONTGOMERY, Clerk of committee.

PRISONERS BUILDING THE SCHOOL
At the R.M. Court to-day before E. Hardcastle, Esq., R.M., the two young men William Moore and Edward Dooley, were brought up on remand, charged with forging a letter, purporting to be written by the Chairman of Upokongaro School Committee. Prisoners had been employed as carpenters to finish the erection of the school, the original contractor having failed. Mr Ross, the architect, refused to pass the work, until certain improvements were carried out and a day or two afterwards the prisoners brought a letter purporting to be signed by Mr Montgomerie, stating that the Committee were satisfied with the additional work. The letter was sent on to the Sec. of the Education Board, who declined to pay the balance of the contract account until he received a certificate from the architect. This was given by Mr Ross, who thought the letter brought by the accused was a genuine one. When the letter was taken back to the Secretary with the certificate, the accused was told that the letter was not in Captain Montogmerie's writing, nor signed by him. On being asked where they got the letter from, Moore replied that he got it from his mate and his mate got it from the school-master Mr Nelson. The Secretary refused to recognise the letter and the Architect finding it was a forgery, tore off his certificate. At this stage the Court adjourned

PRESENTATION to the SCHOOLMASTER
At a meeting of the Upokongaro School Committee held at the schoolhouse on Saturday last, a purse of twenty sovereigns, accompanied by a very handsome testimonial, was presented to Mr John M. Nelson, the schoolmaster of the district. The testimonial is done in true lawyer's style and is far before many we have seen of a similar nature. It is worded as follows:- "Testimonial to Mr John M. Nelson - We the undersigned residents in the Upokongaro, River Bank and Makirikiri Districts desire to express to you our warm appreciation of your kindness and diligence during your residence for the past five years in our midst. Not only as a schoolmaster of much experience do we esteem you, but as being able to successfully identify yourself with everything that has tended to the advancement of our district. How best to promote the health and happiness of the pupils entrusted to your charge has been you constant study and at the same time you have ever been foremost in encouraging them in all their recreative exercises. We wish you every happiness and prosperity in the new path of life you have lately entered on and in order that you may keep the same in lively memory, we beg you to accept of this testimonial, together with the accompanying present as a small token of the respect and esteem in which we all join in holding you."

A HEROIC SACRIFICE
A sad drowning accident occurred yesterday afternoon.
The children of the Upokongaro school, with their parents and friends, went up the river to Karawhaiki for a picnic. A boy got our of his depth and two ladies - Mrs C. F. Giesen and Miss Kate Campbell - lost their lives in trying to rescue him. The bodies have been recovered. The boy was saved.
From the meagre particulars available it appears that a son of Mrs Giesen's was bathing and got into difficulties. His mother went to his assistance but was unable to save the lad and was drowned. Mr Fred Barns, a cousin of Miss Campbell's, hearing screams, rushed to the spot and succeeded in getting the boy out of the water, but was unable to save the ladies. Mr Giesen, who was at the races, was immediately communicate with and made acquainted with the sad news and with two of his boys, who had come to town for the flower show, left for home immediately. Constable Issell left for the scene of the fatality at 3 o'clock this afternoon, taking dragging apparatus with him for the recovery of the bodies.
later particulars received just as we go to press state that the party to which the unfortunate ladies belonged had gone up-river with the Upokongaro School children in Mr J. Nixon's large oil launch to Kaiwhaiki. The lad was bathing in the river and got out of his depth. His mother went to his assistance and being unable to swim was carried out by the current, as was also Miss Campbell who had also gone to the rescue
* Mrs C. F. Giesen was Sarah Jane nee McCracken (1870-1907) was 37. She had married Charles Frederick Giesen (1865-1841). Charles next married Ellen Caroline McCracken (1874-1947), Sarah's sister?
* Kate Lucy Campbell was 26. Daughter of Robert Campbell & Frances Ellen Woodward.

It is with regret I announce that Murray Patrick Lynn (1950-2013), the creator, author and administrator of KiwiCelts, passed away 14 Nov 2013

His family has announced that "KiwiCelts will remain online in it's present form. Decisions about it's future development and maintenance will be made in due course"

In dedication to Murray and in honor of all his incredible hard work over the years I submit his site in an abridged form. It includes Cemeteries, Irish maps, Kiwiwiki, Research Links and his Family History from as far back as 1200 and ranges around the world, from Ireland, Scotland, England and Germany to the Argentine, the USA, Australia and New Zealand
You will find it an invaluable site in your genealogy research

Unbelievably, Murray's Genealogy Place Map Index, geneaMap Database, is not only a cemetery database but a list of all places:
* ART GALLERIES
* CEMETERIES
* CHURCHES
* LIGHTHOUSES
* MARAES
* MEMORIALS
* MUSEUMS
* ORPHANGES
* RAILWAYS
* SCHOOLS
* SHIPWRECKS
* TEMPLES
* UNDERTAKERS
* URUPA
* WAR MEMORIALS

A HUGE site so be patient as it can take a while to load

It is initially sorted at his site by:
Country-Province-District and Name, but you can re-sort it when in there by clicking on the column headings.
Clicking on the Place Name takes you to the geneaMap to see the map location and full details - address, related websites, photos etc

Was unsure the best way to present the data Murray has but finally decided to list it here in alphabetical 'Name of Place' order.

THE REV. ALEXANDER GRANT
Pastor of Knox Presbyterian Church, gave the happy couple a bible
... written c1908, see link ...
The Rev ALEXANDER GRANT, Pastor of Knox Presbyterian Church, was born in Inverness-shire, Scotland, in the year 1846. He was educated in the Free Church of Scotland, and passed through the arts and divinity course in the Aberdeen University. He afterwards laboured for six years in North Ronaldshay, Orkney, and in 1883 came to New Zealand. For seventeen years he had charge of the parish of Waipukurau, and in 1900 received a call to his present church. Mr. Grant is a member of the Hawke's Bay Education Board, and is honorary secretary of the Dannevirke High School Board.

It is with regret I announce that Murray Patrick Lynn (1950-2013), the creator, author and administrator of KiwiCelts, passed away 14 Nov 2013

His family has announced that "KiwiCelts will remain online in it's present form. Decisions about it's future development and maintenance will be made in due course"

In dedication to Murray and in honor of all his incredible hard work over the years I submit his site in an abridged form. It includes Cemeteries, Irish maps, Kiwiwiki, Research Links and his Family History from as far back as 1200 and ranges around the world, from Ireland, Scotland, England and Germany to the Argentine, the USA, Australia and New Zealand
You will find it an invaluable site in your genealogy research

Unbelievably, Murray's Genealogy Place Map Index, geneaMap Database, is not only a cemetery database but a list of all places:
* ART GALLERIES
* CEMETERIES
* CHURCHES
* LIGHTHOUSES
* MARAES
* MEMORIALS
* MUSEUMS
* ORPHANGES
* RAILWAYS
* SCHOOLS
* SHIPWRECKS
* TEMPLES
* UNDERTAKERS
* URUPA
* WAR MEMORIALS

A HUGE site so be patient as it can take a while to load

It is initially sorted at his site by:
Country-Province-District and Name, but you can re-sort it when in there by clicking on the column headings.
Clicking on the Place Name takes you to the geneaMap to see the map location and full details - address, related websites, photos etc

Was unsure the best way to present the data Murray has but finally decided to list it here in alphabetical 'Name of Place' order.
Every name is a searchable link. Visit his site to find all other relevant info

taken from the site DRYBREAD CEMETERY Located at the northern end of the Manuherikia Valley, near the township of Omakau, is the peaceful settlement of Drybread. Once a thriving gold mining settlement, there is very little evidence that remains except for its cemetery. Drybread Cemetery is not easily found, but is signposted off Glassford Road, approximately 1.5 kilometres east-northeast from the turn-off to Thomson Gorge Road. Access is through the Glassford farm

It is with regret I announce that Murray Patrick Lynn (1950-2013), the creator, author and administrator of KiwiCelts, passed away 14 Nov 2013

His family has announced that "KiwiCelts will remain online in it's present form. Decisions about it's future development and maintenance will be made in due course"

TIMELINE
Bush Advocate, 27 September 1890
FROM DANEVIRKE TO WEBER
A RIDE THROUGH THE BUSH by our Special Reporter
... your correspondent was unable to proceed any further on account of the bad state of the road between Ti Tree Point and Wainui. On my return to Weber I noticed Mr Tetzlaff's section of 250 acres. He has felled some 100 acres or more, and sown it in grass, and rape, and intends stocking with sheep as soon as the roads are fit for driving sheep. He intends felling another 100 this year and has built a nice two-roomed cottage, In connection with this he has a fine vegetables growing most luxuriantly in it, showing that this class of land will grow anything. Mr Tetzlaff intends forming a plantation of English ornamental trees round his house. Mr Steven Franklin's property joins that of Mr Tetzlaff. He has a splendid section of 1,400 acres, the most of which has been felled some years. He has a substantial four-roomed cottage, sheep yardss, etc. The great drawback to the Weber district is the exorbitant price of living. The following are a few of the store quotations supplied by a settler:-
Flour, a very important item, 22s 6d per cwt
Sugar, 20s per 40lb bag
Potatoes 20s per bag of 140lb
Of course carting is very expensive ?7 being charged per ton from Danevirke, a distance of twenty-five miles

Bush Advocate, 30 October 1890

Bush Advocate, 11 January 1906
WEBER COUNTY COUNCIL
... Tetzlaff is making food progress with his contract on the Leisure Hour deviation

Bush Advocate, 26 March 1906
WEBER NOTES
... The sudden death of Mr Tetzlaff has deprived the widow and family of eight of their breadwinner. The wife is suffering from an incurable affliction, and the case is a particularly sad one. The deceased was a German, and had a wide experience. He had been contracting about the district for a number of years. He was the soul of good nature, and ever ready to afford any assistance in his power to anyone who might be in trouble. His death is genuinely deplored. As a mark of sympathy with the family in their distress, the jurymen at the inquest yesterday handed their respective fees to the widow

Wanganui Chronicle, 27 March 1906
DEATH FROM OPIUM OVERDOSE
... A man named Albert Tetzlaff, aged 49, a well-known contractor, died suddenly at Weber on Saturday. At the inquest the jury returned a verdict that he died from drinking an overdose of laudanum whilst suffering from the effects of drink. A prohibition order was issued against the deceased on Saturday morning, and he then remarked that those concerned would be sorry for what they had done. He leaves a wife, who is an invalid, and eight children

Bush Advocate, 26 March 1906,
THE INQUEST
... An inquest was held at Weber yesterday before Mr T. Lindsay Buick, District Coroner, and the follwong jury:- John Mabbett (foreman), H. W. J. Muscatt, T. Telford, J. H. Arnott, J. J. Wallace and W. S. HarveY. District Constable Ryan represented the police.
... Andrew Robertson, storekeeper, at Weber, deposed that he was one of Tetzlaff's bondsmen for one of his contracts. For some time Tetzlaff had been drinking heavily, and his employees had come on several occasions and asked witness to take a prohibition order out against him. This witness at first refused to do, as he wished to give Tetzlaff every chance to reform. He spoke to Tetzlaff several times about it, but as he did not mend his ways witness applied to the court on Saturday for an order prohibiting him from drinking, which was granted. Tetzlaff said nothing to him which would indicate that he was angry at the order being taken out. After the court sat he came up to the store and paid some men off. He then asked witness for the bottle of laudanum which he had lent to witness some days before to curR his toothache. He gave as a reason for requiring it, that his wife might be bad that night and would need the drug. The bottle was handed over to him and he left the shop to go home. Witness did not see him after that.
... Dr Macallan deposed that on Saturday he was called by telephone to see Tetzlaff, whose condition was described as serious. He reached the house at 7.35 p.m. and found deceased suffering from opium poisoning, the symptoms being very typical. He applied that necessary remedies, but the heart stopped at 7.50 p.m. Tetzlaff was deeply unconscious when witness arrived and he was informed that he had been in that condition since 11.30 a.m. His breath smelt very strongly of alcohol, but the cause of death was opium poisoning.
... District Constable Ryan deposed that a prohibition order had been taken our against Tetzlaff on Saturday. During the hearing deceased had made the remark that if the order was granted the Bench would be sorry for it. Half an hour later he saw Tetzlaff at Robertsons's store, when he appeared to have had more drink. He did not see him again until he was called to the house about 2.45. Tetzlaff was then unconscious, and was black in the face and arms. Witness endeavoured to restore animation, and then sent for the doctor. The efforts to restore animation were continued until Dr Macallan arrived. The first idea he got that Tetzlaff was poisoned was a remark made by Mr Francis. He then made search for the bottle, but could not find it. He then went to interview Mr Robertson, and by the time he returned the bottle (produced) had been found. He remained with Dr Maccallan until Tetzlaff died. He had known him for a number of years, and during all that time Tetzlaff had been a heavy drinker.
... Thomas Wright deposed that Mrs Tetzlaff called him to come and see her husband shortly before three o'clock. He found him lying on the bed and making a peculiar noise. He at once sent for Constable Ryan. Later on he heard something said about poison and he went and looked about the doorstep, where deceased had been sitting, and found the bottle under the house.
... The Coroner then summed up the evidence and the jury after a brief retirement returned the following verdict:- "That deceased met his death at Weber on Saturday, 24th March, by drinking an overdose of laudanum whilst under the influence of drinking
