w. (1) Jessie Eva Hort Huxham, “The Princess Trouil of Denmark, Baroness MacCorquodale of Loch Tromley,
Chieftainess of Clan Macquorquodale".
Jessie was the Daughter of Hortensius Huxham and Eleanor Emma Huxham née MacCorquodale, being born
in Glamorganshire, Wales. A family history claims that Rev MacKenzie "invented" the story of the Danish
Royal connection and had the titles inscribed on her gravestone. Through her maternal Grandfather John
MacCorquodale, Jessie was said to have descended from Torquil who had fought in the army of Kenneth the
Great and been granted lands by Loch Awe in Argyll. Torquil was said to have been from the stock of Danish
Princes, hence the belief that Jessie was a Danish Princess. Her Grandfather was however only a Factor on
the estate. Some family sources say that Rev MacKenzie may have been Jessie's tutor at one time.

His style of worship caused the large congregation at Avondale to dwindle sharply. Some dissatisfied
parishioners chose to hold their own services in the local school.
At the request of Auckland Presbytery, MacKenzie was asked to resign by the 7th June 1887. He refused to
resign until his arrears of stipend were paid. Presbytery also refused his request for a recommendation to the
Church Extension Committee for further employment.
Rev MacKenzie finally resigned as from the 31st January 1888 although as at February 1888 he was still
trying to obtain payment of arrears of stipend owed to him. The dispute over his salary continued until October
1889 when a certificate was issued stating that MacKenzie's Ministry at Avondale terminated offically on the
7th June 1887.

his son Torquil after 1895 and refused further contact.

people. He enjoyed being involved with people.
After moving to Gore in the early 1970’s Colin continued to minister, serving as an Elder

b 19.12.1888 in New Zealand.
w Erica b 4.7.1890 m 4.1919 d. in Australia after a long illness.
Educated at Otago University, Dunedin and then, with a scholarship, at Princeton
Theological Seminary USA. He only failed to graduate because he joined the Scottish
Light Horse during World War One and then went on to earn a distinguished war
record (awarded the M.C.& Bar). Returned to New Zealand and took his B.A. at Otago
University.
To Australia :
General Secretary of the Australian Student Christian Movement - licence authorized Nov 1922
Returned to New Zealand :
Ord Leeston ChP  15.11.1923 - resigned 28.2.1925 and then taught at secondary schools for
some years, including at Rangiora High School.
To Australia :
Principal of Hamilton & District Boy’s College, Victoria 1932 to 1936
Oversaw the establishment of an Agricultural Science Class in 1933 – practical experiments
with grasses and fodders combined with theory. Carpentry, a radio club, a printing group and
an orchestra all provided some balance to the academic and sporting lives of the boys.
Resigned and returned to New Zealand after being called to Wadestown Parish. A previous
visit to NZ in his capacity as Secretary of the Australian & NZ Student Christian Movement
had impressed many with the vigour with which he expressed his radical views. One selector
suggested that such modern ideas would lead the young stray and discourage them from
joining the Church – in fact the reverse occurred. Some Office-Bearers had resigned in protest
at his call but these were later withdrawn :
Wadestown WnP 11.12.1936 - resigned 4.2.1945 and withdrew.

Acting Editor of “The Messenger” (The Australian Presbyterian Church magazine) from
Oct 1954 until 1956 then Editor of “Presbyterian Life” (which replaced from “The Messenger”)
until he died in 1958. He also conducted the devotional column in this journal.   
He experienced difficult financial times during his teaching career. He maintained high
standards and wanted boys to “know life as it really is, who are not only prepared for social
changes, but who know enough of history to understand the failures and successes of man in
the past to understand the main process upon which life and happiness depend, and who have
been trained to think for themselves, that they can take a lead in making the right and
appropriate changes which the world requires.”
It was from his experience of war that he chose to turn towards pacifism and found himself
in general fellowship with ‘The Society of Friends’.
“My endeavour to preserve our allegiance to that fellowship of the Church Universal which
transcends all national loyalties, and my pains to avoid our being swept into a cyclone of hate
and fury towards our national enemies, impose a restraint on our prayers which is bound to
hurt when it is natural for us to think of our own.”
In 1940 he became Dominion President of the League of Nations Branch in New Zealand and
became involved in bringing out a number of German and Austrian refugees with whom he
became firm friends.
Father of the Rev Dr Peter McKenzie.
Died 29 Aug 1958 at Toorak, Victoria, Australia.
