Duke of Roxburgh
Ship: 417 tons
Captain: James Thomson
Surgeon Superintendent: Francis Healy
Sailed Plymouth 5th October 1839 - arrived Port Nicholson 8th February 1840
"The 'Duke' made the third vessel
of the fleet to reach Port Nicholson, and by that time the foreshore at Petone had became
a busy locality. Tents were supplemented by shanties of various descriptions, but some of
the whares put up with the help of the Maoris were of a more ambitious character, and so
well built that they lasted several years. Round about this somewhat incongruous
camp-settlement the belongings of the settlers were scattered, and as there were by this
time about 500 white people ashore the scene was decidedly animated."
