John Hobson White was an Immigration Agent in England and responsible for the immigration of thousands of English farm workers to NZ & Queensland, Australia in the late 1800s. He is well documented in NZ. We have a book that devotes a whole chapter to him & he also features in our big new Museum of NZ in Wellington. He himself didn't come here until 1893. Several of his brothers & sisters also came to NZ before him. He lived here where we live now with Peter's grandparents in the later years of his life & is buried in the cemetery near by. It is a wonder he lived to come to NZ as he was not at all popular with the Lincolnshire farmers in encouraging the English farm workers to immigrate & better themselves. It is a miracle he wasn't lynched from what we've read.^7,8,23
