Lynch, Ossian Paul

Lynch, Ossian Paul, J.P., Sheepfarmer, “Emerald Glen,” Paikakariki. Mr. Lynch, who has been a settler in the district for thirty years, owns 1500 acres, which is all under grass with the exception of the swampy land. The estate carries 4500 sheep, chiefly of the Romney Marsh breed. When Mr. Lynch settled in the district, there was no road to the property, which was in a state of nature. Born in the Hutt, he was educated in Wellington, and taking to a country life, he has been a prominent settler for many years. Mr. Lynch was appointed a Justice of the Peace in 1882.
