Summary
| Description |
On 9 July 1863, Governor George Grey issued a proclamation requiring Māori living in the Manukau district and on the Waikato frontier to either to take an oath of allegiance to Queen Victoria and surrender their weapons to a Government officer, or to retire into the Waikato beyond the Mangatawhiri Stream. Government officials were instructed to proceed to Ihumatao, Mangere, Pukaki, Patumahoe, Tuakau and Pokeno to read and administer the oath and accept the surrender of arms. Copies were provided for distribution by Henry Halse, Major James Speedy, James Armitage, T.A. White and John Gorst. The proclamation was first published in newspapers on 11 July 1863. The invasion of Waikato began the next day: www.nzhistory.net.nz/british-forces-invade-the-waikato Archives Reference: MA1 Box 835/ 1863/186 archway.archives.govt.nz/ViewFullItem.do?code=22412338 For updates on our On This Day series and news from Archives New Zealand, follow us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/ArchivesNZ Material from Archives New Zealand Caption information from www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/EN/heritage/localhistory/co... |
