Added to this are the newer developments of the 1970s and 1980s, which have gradually become contiguous with the Quedgeley district of Gloucester to the north. The village ...

Hardwicke, New Zealand
Hardwicke was the name of an agricultural and whaling community set up at Port Ross, a natural harbour on Auckland Island in the Auckland Islands in the Southern Ocean, south of New Zealand. Although a short-lived settlement was established, it was abandoned within three years. History This colonial settlement was first proposed in 1846.

Charles Enderby was the son of Samuel Enderby, founder of the London whaling company Samuel Enderby & Sons.

Settlement began in December 1849. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
