John Rees George | GEORGE, JOHN REES (1841-89) was the son of a solicitor and was born at Lewisham, London. He entered the office of a London tea merchant but, having mechanical tendencies, joined the firm of Kennards, railway contractors. At the age of 20 he was in charge of a contract in Portugal and in 1865 he came to New Zealand under engagement to the Wellington provincial government, for whom he carried out an extension of the Queen's wharf and constructed the patent slip and the Wanganui bridge. He was manager of the Patent Slip Co. and the first Wellington Gas Co. and managing director of the Wellington Trust and Loan Co. till his death (on 26 Jun 1889). George was a member of the Wellington City Council (1874-78) and of the harbour board (1889) and chairman of the chamber of commerce (1882). N.Z. Times, 11 Jul 1889 | Volume 1, page 162 |
George Rees | REES, GEORGE (1810-58) was born in London, the son of a Thames pilot. He qualified in medicine and came to Port Nicholson in 1841 as surgeon in the Lord William Bentinck. Starting practice in Wanganui, he was shortly joined by his brother Joseph (1808-61), who, however, soon gave up medicine and farmed up the river. George Rees had a lucrative practice, and was also colonial surgeon and medical officer to the natives. He acquired a good deal of property in the town and district of Wanganui, and when he died (on 19 Sep 1858) he left a bequest of about £5,000 to establish an educational endowment, from which the Girls' College and the Technical College in Wanganui benefited. Woon; T. W. Downes in The Index, Wanganui Tech. Coll., Nov 1913; Wanganui Chronicle, 20 Sep 1858. | Volume 2, page 108 |
