McKenzie, T. And H
McKenzie, T. And H. (Thomas McKenzie and Hugh McKenzie) Farmers, Allday Bay, Kakanui. The Messrs McKenzie hold two properties, which comprise over 270 acres of freehold land. They are sons of the late Mr. Thomas McKenzie, who died in 1894; he came to Queensland in 1861, and in the following year landed in Otago. He was for some years shepherd on “Mount Royal” and a manager of other stations, and in 1870, settled in the Kakanui district, where he purchased that portion of the property known as the Allday Bay estate. Till 1898 Mr. Thomas McKenzie, the senior partner of the present firm, managed the property in the interests of the family. Messrs T. and H. McKenzie are now farming the entire estate.
