Mr. Joseph Pattrick

Mr. Joseph Pattrick came out in one of the first four ships, with a family of seven children, and became well known and highly esteemed as a citizen of Christchurch. Shortly after his arrival he took up land in St. Albans, and, later on, about 300 acres at Ashley. He also had a farm named “Raithby,” on the Waimakariri river. After following agricultural pursuits for a number of years he retired and lived at St. Albans, where he died on the 19th of June, 1880, at the age of sixty-five. His wife, surviving him, died fifteen years afterwards at Papanui.
