3032 c1857 Notes on the name 'Clement'

The name 'Clement' came from an early map (see next note) and the 'C' was smudged - so it is possible that the name is not 'Clement'

3033 c1857/58 Early maps of the area.

Mr John Turnbull Thompson, the early surveyor and explorer produced a number of maps of the Otago interior district runs. Reconnaissance Survey 4 covers the Bannockburn area and was surveyed around 1857/58. The map was published about 1862/63. Shown on this map is a reference to '?lements accommodation house' * The location of this building is very close to the Parcells Halfway House and it may be that the Clements accommodation house and the 'Halfway House' are the same building. The author has been unable to discover any information about the name Clement, or the accommodation house, other than it being present on the Thompson map. * (the letter is smudged on the map, but may be a C, therefore the name may be Clement. See electoral roll 1867/68 where the only entry is George Clement, Camp Street, Queenstown - household)
