Extract about the
"Parkinson from Kaituna Valley"

Thomas Hodgson Parkinson arrived in Lyttleton, New Zealand in 1855 on board the 'Gil Blas' which sailed from Melbourne, Australia and soon after his arrival was engaged by the Rhodes Brothers to oversee their 25,000 acre (10117ha)Kaituna run. So started the association of the Parkinson family with Kaituna Valley which still exists today. T.H. Parkinson proceeded to purchase land from the Rhodes and by 'spotting or 'grid-ironing' as well as holding land under pasturage licence. T.H. Parkinson married Mary Ann Mac Kinnon in 1858. In about 1868 he started a butchery business on Norwich Quay, Lyttleton which he continued to operate until 1875. Thomas Parkinson died in 1883. Their son Walter Fox Parkinson bought the Homestead block in 1901 from the trustees of the estate.
