OBIT
Obituary: John Adam Sims, whose death was reported last week, was one of the pioneers of Devonport. When he took his family there to live, some forty odd years ago, there were only about two houses on the northern shore of the harbour other than his own, and though of late years his home has been in the cily, Mr Sims has been a burgess of Devonport ever since. This, however, was not his only title to pioneership. Mr Sims and his parents arrived in Auckland in 1842, in that Mayflower of Waitemata settlement, the Duchess of Argyle. His rank as one of the oldest settlers in Auckland was therefore as unchallengeable as that of Mr John Logan Campbell.
Further, Mr Sims was, at the time of his death, the oldest member of the Fountain of Friendship Lodge of Oddfellows, in which he was initiated fifty-four years ago. Again, he set up one of the earliest shipbuilding yards in the port. After serving an apprenticeship to the late Mr Niccol, father of Mr George Niccol, he started in business on his own account, afterwards taking into partnership Mr W. H. Brown, and the firm of Sims and Brown became one of the best-known houses of shipbuilders and owners in the province. For a long period, right up to and overlapping the initiation of steam traffic to the Islands, they had a fleet of sailing vessels regularly trading in that direction. Some fifteen or sixteen years ago Mr Sims withdrew from his business, which had in the meantime been shifted across from Devonport to Customsstreet, and since then he has lived in retirement. As a sterling old colonist, he has left behind a name for probity in business of which the survivors of his family may well be proud. John Adam Sims had person sources.7 He was in 1842. He immigrated to SCT to NZ on the Duchess of Argyle arriving NZ 9/10/1842 on 9 June 1842.1,2
