Weight 1070g. -- Edward Jerningham Wakefield (1820 1876) was the son of Edward Gibbon Wakefield (1796 1862), who was the driving force behind the early colonization of New Zealand and South Australia, founding the New Zealand Association in 1837 with the aim of creating a colony in that country. His son was appointed secretary of the first settler expedition to New Zealand in 1839, and remained in the colony until 1844.
