From notes by a Kendall family historian: "George was born in Paarl, South Africa, on 23rd May 1854 and was baptised on 20th August 1854. His father, William's occupation at the time was listed as Journeyman Tanner. On arrival in New Zealand, George was eleven. On 24th September 1876 at Waipera, Hokianga, he married Neta, Daughter of Atama Paparangi of Mitimiti. George was working with his brother Tom on the gumfields and is listed in the 1894 - 5 Wises Directory as a storekeeper from Waitapu, Hokianga. George and Neta lived in Mitimiti and had a large family of eleven children. He died there on 25th Jun 1921 aged 67."

Notes from Gay Legge: "George's sons who married back into Maori side, took the Maori version of Kendall, eg: Kanara. George was also known as Hori Kanara, and Neta is named in some sources as Neta Atama."
