Richard MUDGWAY (1846-1942) OBITUARY (from The Evening Post (Wellington), 10 March 1942)
One of New Zealand's very early settlers. Mr. Richard Mudgway, died at Upper Hutt last Saturday. Born in the Hutt Valley 98 years ago, Mr. Mudgway had spent practically the whole of his long life in the district. He clearly recollected many early incidents connected with the growth of Wellington and with the development of the Hutt Valley. As a pioneer he was interested in many of the early projects in and around the district, farming, roadmaking, and building claiming his chief attention. He retired from active business life in 1918 and afterwards lived quietly in Levin till recently, when he went to live with his daughter-in-law, Mrs. I Mudgway, in Miro Street, Upper Hutt.
