Mr. Thomas Webb, J.P., Coroner, Aratapu, was born and educated in Staffordshire. In 1863 he came to New Zealand by the ship “Gertrude,” and engaged in farming on the Kaipara. His father, Mr. Thomas S. Webb, was coroner before him; he succeeded him in 1889 and was made a Justice of the Peace for the Colony at the same time. He is a member of the licensing bench and school committee. Mr. Webb is interested in the temperance movement, having been district chief ruler of the Auckland Rechabites, and also president of the Aratapu Mutual Improvement Society and Band of Hope. Mr. Webb married a daughter of the late Mr. J. B. Massey, at one time Government engineer, and has two daughters and one son.
