Description

On 17 July 1863 the first battle of the Waikato war was fought at Koheroa, near Mercer. The British invasion force, led by Lieutenant-General Duncan Cameron fought against up to 150 Māori led by Waikato rangatira Te Huirama (Ngāti Mahuta).

The image above is a list of Māori killed during the battle. The dead are listed by hapu and the list begins with Te Huirama. Only one fatality was suffered by the British. The list is included in a file titled ‘Memoranda from List of Maoris killed at Koheroa, forwarded to Defence Office. List compiled from letters from RH McGregor, Resident Magistrate, Raglan, and TA White, Queen's Redoubt, addressed to the Native Minister 22 July 1863’. The two letters used to compile the list are also included in the file.
