In 1844 three German Protestant missionaries, including the Rev. Johannes Carl Riemenschneider, came to New Zealand to work among the Maori. Riemenschneider worked at Warea, Taranaki, for 14 arduous years, at the end of which he removed to Otago, dying there in 1866.

His ministry in Taranaki covered a particularly interesting though troubled period of Maori-Pakeha relations, and as the trusted friend both of Sir Donald Maclean and of the Maori leaders he endeavoured to reconcile differences which, in the end, could be settled only by bloodshed.
