In 1838 Thomas Forsaith chartered the Coromandel loaded it with trade goods and lumber making machinery, and immigrated to New Zealand. In 1839 he purchased two blocks of land in the Kaipara district and established a trading station at Mangawhare on the Northern Wairoa River. He also erected a mill to cut kauri spars (then selling at £17 each) for the British Government, and imported cattle and farm implements to break in his land. By May 1841 he had cleared and fenced 12 acres, of which 10 acres were sown in wheat.
In February 1842, while Forsaith and his wife were visiting Sydney, a Maori skull was discovered on his property. Local chiefs claimed that a tapu had been broken and exacted utu, or payment, by plundering the station. Forsaith petitioned Governor Hobson for compensation. The claim was investigated by George Clarke the Protector of Aborigines. His report cleared Forsaith of complicity, and the chiefs responsible agreed to cede him a small block of land (10 square miles) by way of settlement. This was the first occasion on which Government Officers had visited the district and Clarke made valuable recommendations concerning the establishment of magistracy there. Thomas Spencer Forsaith immigrated to to Hokianga, NZ on the Coromandel arrived 1 dec 1838, in 1838.1,2 He was a timber trader, Dargaville in 1840.1 He was a sub-protector of native population and interpreter in 1843.5

Think that Benjamin Glass married Maria(Maree) Sturm and they had three daughters
Violet Henrietta, Myrtle Roseina and ivy Christina. I have no proof of this marriage but dates and names seem to link. I have Benjamins death certificate that names Marie Sturm as his wife. He died in 1913, found dead presumed strangled. I just need to confirm where and when they got married? I think that Frederick and Henrietta had four sons and two of which died. I am sorry I have no more information but if I come across any I will let you know. Cheers Rose transportpyne@xtra.co.nz.
