Hoani (John/Jacky White) Karetai

Karetai was a son of Kakatuaheka and Te Thutakara. One of his ancestors, Pokeni, mentioned by Shortland, had a remarkable wife. One half of her face was tattooed in every respect like that of a man, while the other had no more marks than those to which her sex entitled her. Shortland states that he afterwards met several aged women of this tribe who had similarly engraved their laces, a type of ornamentation not seen among the North Island women.

Karetai died at Ōtākou on 30 May 1860 and received a Christian burial. His monument stands in the Māori cemetery. He was said to be 79 years of age. He had eight wives, Pōhata, Hinehou, Pītoko, Te Kōara, Wahine Ororaki, Māhaka, Hinepakia, and Te Horo, and as many as 10 children.

“In memory of Karetai of the Kai-tahu and Kati-mamoe tribes in the South Island who died 30th May, 1860, aged 76 years. Under the shelter of the authority of Queen Victoria, his conduct to the people of the Maori and European races was kind and liberal.”

He was of medium height and of manly bearing, and yet of a retiring nature. His face was strongly tattooed. He was a father to his tribe and won not only their esteem but also their affection.

Karetai (c 1805– 30 May 1860), also known as Hone Karetai and Jacky White,[1] was a New Zealand tribal Māori leader. Of Kati Kuri, Kati Mamoe, and Waitaha descent, he identified with the Kai Tahu iwi.[1]
