A chapel was at Māori Gully before Fr Binsfeld and Fr Colomb’s time, not dedicated.
“Fr Colomb lined the chapel at Māori Gully which was already in existence before his and Father Binsfeld’s advent.”
The Ahaura parish return 1892: “Never heard who the patron of the church at Māori Gully is.” In 1895 the return said:” All churches in good order and condition except one small church at Māori Gully which requires repairing.”
