They had a son in 1828 (later baptised), so the 1824 date is probably correct for marriage according to Māori custom and the later date that of the Christian confirmation. Hine may have been a relative of Tūhawaiki 'Bloody Jack', later paramount chief of Ngāi Tahu, whose stronghold was on Ruapuke.Wises New Zealand Guide, 7th Edition, 1979. p. 386.

The mission at Kerikeri was undoubtedly earlier and is now considerably larger than Bluff. There is also no indication that there is more than one European at Bluff at this time which might not be sufficient to qualify as a settlement.
