Description

Album compiled by Spencer Perceval Talbot Nicholl when he was serving with the 43rd Oxfordshire Light Infantry during the New Zealand wars.

The photographs were chiefly taken by John Kinder and by Daniel Manders Beere, in the Auckland, Waikato and Bay of Plenty areas.

Many of the views have no captions, but can be identified in comparison with images known to have been taken by these photographers.

Views identified include Mr. Ashwell's church at Taupiri (Rev. Benjamin Yate Ashwell); thatched buildings; flagstaff at Ngaruawahia; the monument to the 43rd Regiment at Gate Pa near Tauranga; Potatau's tomb with a sentry guarding it; a carved stern-post of a waka; and a group of Maori men.

Some, but not all, photos taken by Kinder.
