Turner, Captain Archibald Campbell (1835-1912)

SummaryCaptain A.C. Turner was a New Zealand engineer and military officer, born in Saint John, New Brunswick, and the third son of Colonel Charles Barker Turner.

He served as a captain in the colonial forces during the New Zealand Wars and was recognised among the notable defenders of the colony profiled in Heroes of New Zealand and Maori History of the War (1887). Turner's service and leadership contributed to the establishment of colonial military infrastructure in New Zealand, and he remains a recorded figure in the historical accounts of the nineteenth-century conflicts between Crown forces and Māori.
