MRS JEREMIAH ORMSBY Mrs Jeremiah Ormsby who was formerly Miss Ngapaki Tana, a well-known and respected Maori resident of the King Country, passed away at her daughter's residence at Waitete, Te Kuiti, last Sunday. She was 90 years of age. Born at Kapiha near Pirongia, she was the daughter of James Turner and a grand-daughter of William Turner, a figure famed in Northern King Country history. William Turner left England in 1828 and after a short sojourn in Sydney came to New Zealand arriving at Port Waikato on the “Sydney Packet,” a trading ship dealing in sealskins and flax in the year, 1834. A handsome Maori chieftainess, Ripeka Tangi of the Ngati Koraki tribe, Waikato, was betrothed to him in marriage and James Turner, the father of Ngapaki was the issue of that union. James Turner married a Maniapoto-Ngatirora, Atiria Hamuera whose tribal lands were at Waitete.
