Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Charles Heaphy - a man of many parts

On 19 May 1846, guided by Kehu, Charles Heaphy and Thomas Brunner reached Mawhera Pa on their second major West Coast exploration. Mawhera Pa is now the site of Greymouth.

Heaphy was fairly typical of early more prominent Pakeha settlers in New Zealand. A man of many abilities, he served the colony as an artist and publicist, as an explorer, draughtsman and surveyor, and as a soldier and public servant. It can be argued that he spread his abilities too thinly, but he was committed to New Zealand and did his best to make a living in sometimes difficult circumstances.

At the time of this map in 1870, Heaphy was Commissioner of Native Reserves, under Donald McLean. AAFV 997 57 / G187 (R22823418)
