Thomas Maxwell was born about 1800 in Maxwell, Aberdeen, SCT.^1,2 He died in April 1842, at age ~42, in at sea see notes.

Patuone had another connection with shipbuilding, being instrumental, in a very interesting way, in the establishment of Thomas Maxwell?s shipbuilding business at Waiheke. Thomas Maxwell came to the Bay of Islands in 1820. A boatbuilder from Maxwell near Aberdeen, he arrived in New Zealand waters aboard a sailing ship of his own design and construction. Shortly after his arrival, a Nga-puhi taua to Tamaki-makau-rau, returned to the Bay of Islands with a very high-born captive, Ngeungeu, beautiful daughter of the rangatira, Otara Te Irirangi. Because of Ngeungeu?s high status, any mistreatment of her would have given rise to serious repercussions and accordingly, Patuone advised Otara Te Irirangi that he would guarantee her safety and ensure her good and respectful treatment. In the interim, Thomas Maxwell was highly impressed with Ngeungeu upon seeing her and it was clear that the attraction was mutual. In another intriguing twist, Patuone consented to their marriage and Ngeungeu returned to her father together with Thomas Maxwell, to the great delight of Otara Te Irirangi. With the support of his father-in-law, Maxwell then established his business at Waiheke, creating boats designed for local conditions and building up a very lucrative operation. The consent of Patuone to the marriage indicates yet another interesting and highly complex aspect of chiefly authority. A high-born captive could be termed a mokai, a category of slave, distinct from a common slave or taurekareka. The relationship with the capturing rangatira could be used for great advantage from both sides and in some cases, even lead to marriage. Such events would therefore seal an alliance between former enemies.

The trader Thomas Maxwell purchases the 'Te Hurihi' [i.e. Te Huruhe] block on Waiheke Island. On 22 May 1839 he purchases another block of land in the vicinity, and on 11 January 1840 several islands of the gulf, including Motutapu. Maxwell is the husband of Ngeungeu, daughter of the Ngai Tai chief, Tara Te Irirangi, of Umupuia.
Further Information Thomas Maxwell at Maraetai
On the deed of sale of the 'Te Hurihi' [sic, correctly 'Te Huruhe'] block Thomas Maxwell is described as "a mariner by trade and now a dealer in the Bay of Islands" (H.H. Turton, Maori Deeds of Old Private Land Purchases in New Zealand, Wellington, 1882, p. 319; see also: 'Deed of Gift in Favour of Thomas Maxwell's Children' [Wairoa], ibid., p. 337). Maxwell descendant Nathew Green has pointed out that Te Huruhe is misspelled as Te Hurihi or Te Huruhi both in the deeds and in many published sources - 'Te Huruhe', now Man O' War Bay, and 'Te Hurihi', now Blackpool, are in fact on opposite ends of the island (pers. comm., 15/1/2007)
The exact date of Thomas Maxwell's arrival in the area has not been documented. In the Roll of Early Settlers (Auckland, 1940), it was suggested that Maxwell settled at Maraetai in 1817; however, in an earlier source, his date of arrival in the Waitemata was given as 1837 ('An Alphabetical List of Discoverers, Visitors, Traders, Early Residents', R.A.A. Sherrin, Early History of New Zealand, Auckland, 1890, appendix, p. iii).
A.E. Tonson wrote: "The first white man to come to Umupuia was Thomas Maxwell, who came from a whaling ship at the Bay of Islands in the 1820's [sic], before marrying a native girl from the Umupuia district" (Old Manukau, Manukau City, 1966, p. 182). The 'native girl' [sic] was, of course, Ngeungeu, daughter of Tara Te Irirangi. According to family tradition, Maxwell met and married Ngeungeu while she was a captive in the Bay of Islands. In his account of his activities in 1844, the peripatetic artist G.F. Angas wrote: "Ngeungeu, the daughter of Tara or Irirangi, a chief of the Nga ti tai [Ngai Tai] tribe, became the wife of one Thomas Maxwell, an industrious and enterprising settler, who for many years resided on the island of Waiheke ... " (Savage Life and Scenes in Australia and New Zealand, London, 1847, vol. I, pp. 292-3).
Nathew Green notes that Maxwell met and married Ngeungeu in the Bay of Islands in the late 1820s, but often visited her whanau at Maraetai during the 1830s, and also sojourned on Waiheke Island, where he built the ship 'Te Matuku' ('The Bittern') in 1833 (Nathew Green, 'From Hawaiki to Howick: A Ngai Tai History', in Alan La Roche, Grey's Folly, Auckland, 2011, pp. 27-8).

From Waiheke Island, Mitchell traded in timber. In 1841 he built another schooner, the Sarah Maxwell. He lost his life at sea in April 1842 (Clifford W. Hawkins, Out of Auckland, Auckland, 1960, p. 38).
Fuller discussion of Maxwell's life and career can be found in Paul Monin, Waiheke Island: A History, Palmerston North, 1992; Nat Green, 'A Short Ngai Tai History', in Our Clevedon Story: The Clevedon School 150th Anniversary Commemorative Booklet, Clevedon, 2009, pp. 24-30; Nathew Green, op. cit., pp. 26-8; Jessie Munro, Voices of Belonging: A History of Clevedon-Te Wairoa, Wellington, 2016, vol. 1, pp. 50-1 passim. Thomas Maxwell immigrated to to Maretai in 1817.³ He was a boat builder and trader, Man of War Bay, Waiheke Island in 1836.^1,2

Ngeungeu was born about 1800.^1,2 She and James Moncur were married.

NGEUNGEU is the daughter of Tara, the principal chief of the Nga-ti-tai tribe, and was married to Thomas Maxwell, an industrious and enterprising settler, who resided for many years at the Island of Waiheke, situated in the frith of the Thames, near the entrance of the river Waitemata, on the banks of which the Town of Auckland is built.
She is the mother of several interesting children, besides the one delineated in the plate. About three years ago, she lost her husband, who was drowned at sea; he had built a small schooner, which he called the "Sarah Maxwell," and after taking his departure from Auckland, on his first voyage, was never again heard of. A very heavy gale of wind from N. E., set in shortly after he left port, and it is supposed his vessel foundered with all on board. Mrs. Maxwell was deeply affected with her loss, and although solicited by more than one European to re-enter the marriage state, she has declined every offer, and still remains a widow. She possesses a considerable estate in land, which circumstance, no doubt, rendered an alliance with her an object of ambition to those who aspired to her hand.
Since her husband's death, she has generally resided at Omupuia, her native village.
