10 nov 1839 ano - First European farm established at Takapuneke

Descrição:

An Englishman, William Green, had preceded the French settlers. He
arrived in Akaroa on 10 November 1839 with about 50 head of cattle, under contract to
W.B. Rhodes, Daniel Cooper and James Holt, Rhodes having purchased a deed that was
the basis for a claim to a tract of land at Akaroa. The cattle were landed at Takapuneke,
the bay immediately to the south of Paka Ariki/French Bay. The Greens lived initially in a
tent at Takapuneke, but Green soon built a permanent house on the northern side of the
point that now bears his name, that is inside Paka Ariki/French Bay.
