Kendall Family collection guide

CreatorKendall family (Ulladulla, N.S.W.)Date1829-1843DescriptionThomas Kendall (1778- 1832) arrived in NSW en route for New Zealand in 1813 as a missionary/teacher for the Church Missionary Society. In the following year he began a school for Maori children at the Bay of Islands. Following his ordination in London in 1820, he returned to New Zealand but was dismissed for impropriety soon after. He returned to NSW in 1827 following a short period teaching in Valparaiso. Kendall received a grant of 1280 acres at Narrawakkee Creek near Ulladulla and began logging the cedar for sale in Sydney. He was drowned in 1832 when the Schooner, Brisbane capsized off Jervis Bay. His son, Thomas Surfleet Kendall, also settled at Ulladulla and held land adjacent to his father’s grant. Another son, Basil was the father of the poet, Henry Kendall. This collection comprises letters relating to the Kendall family.Collection NameKendall FamilyUOW Archival Collection Inventories
