Thomas Frederick Cheeseman - Papers and botanical notebooks, 1867-1923, offshore islands (Kermadec Islands/Rangitāhua, Little Barrier Island/Te Hauturu-o-Toi) and further into the Pacific (Rarotonga). The collection inventory itemises the places visited and records many of the known dates. Some notebooks feature several collecting areas covering one or multiple period(s) of time. Cheeseman himself appears to have affixed his own title labels to many of the covers. Each volume is numbered on the spine using white ink. The earliest field notebook relates to Cheeseman's plant collecting in the Auckland area from 1869 to 1873. The remainder concern a series of field collecting trips from 1872 to 1895. The trips lasted from several days to nearly several months. Thirteen of the notebooks (Vols. 2, 5, 12 - 15, 17, 18, 20 - 23, 32 and 41) contain some form of dated entries
Notebook includes entries about Okoroire to Waimakeriri (sic), [Waimakariri], and Patetere Plateau
Thomas Frederick Cheeseman was born on 8 June 1845, in Hull, Yorkshire. He was the Auckland Institute and Museum botanist and sole curator for nearly 50 years from 1874 until his death in 1923. During his career, Cheeseman described three plant genera, some 140 species, 67 varieties and one forma. A genus and 29 plant species from New Zealand and the Cook Islands were named after him. He published the "Manual of the New Zealand flora" (1906, 2nd ed. 1925) and "Illustrations of the New Zealand flora" (1914), in addition to numerous scientific articles. In 1918 he was awarded the Hector Memorial Medal and Prize. Amongst his other accolades, he was elected fellow of the Linnean Society of London, and in 1923 received their prestigious Linnean Medal
