Addional Notes:

 

Samuel Brees (1810-1865) was employed as the New Zealand Company's principal engineer and surveyor from 1841 to 1845 and lived in Wellington. During his years in New Zealand he recorded his observations. The finely executed engravings are now a facinating insight into the early days of colonisation.
