Lower right (l.r.) in ink in Dr Hocken’s hand: Sinclair’s house, Pigeon Bay, built 1840. Sinclair was a shipwright, drowned about 1844; on original mount in ink: These primitive sketches were given to me by …. an old carpenter who worked under Cap. Thomas, the surveyor of the Canterbury Settlement in 1849-50, & are supposed to represent some of the earliest dwellings &c. I filled in the descriptions from his information. T.M. Hocken
