From papers (2004) 'Medical Practice in New Zealand 1769-1860'.........

"Less is known of Dr. Macshane. He arrived on the Whitby in October 1841 and settled into practice. One of his noted acts was the amputation in 1843 of the leg of a Maori who had been wounded some years before- the patient smoking his pipe throughout the operation. In 1847 Macshane was awarded the tender for looking after Maori patients, his bid of six pounds five shillings a month undercutting that of his rival George Bush. In September 1848, he was appointed as the colonial surgeon to the newly built colonial hospital at New Plymouth with a salary of one hundred and eighty pounds per year. However, on his arrival it was obvious to Dr. Peter Wilson that Macshane was a sick man. He died of consumption on 6.7.1849*".

Hi Minniehaha, you're once again overwhelming me with all your first rate research on this family.
Many thanks,

Hi CR. Is this the Clara Pope b1815 to Charles Pope and Mary SOMERSBY in Little Wolford Warks? Her sister was my 2nd Gt Grandmother. Could not find what happened to Clara.
