About Archid. Alfred Nesbit Brown
"Alfred Nesbit Brown served as a Church Missionary Society (CMS) missionary in New Zealand from 1829 to 1884. He spent much of his time at the Te Papa Mission Station in Tauranga where the Brown family took up residence in January 1838. Bishop George Augustus Selwyn granted Brown his licence as minister of the Tauranga district on 19 December 1842 and appointed him the first archdeacon of Tauranga on 31 December 1843. He was installed in September 1844. His missionary work was affected when the New Zealand Wars spread to Tauranga in 1864. The government confiscated land in the western Bay of Plenty and made it available to military settlers, displacing Maori from their whenua, and Brown’s mission work came to an end. The historic Elms Mission House is the oldest European heritage site in the Bay of Plenty."
