Br PIERRE (Br Pierre-Marie) PERENON, aged 35 (on arrival in New Zealand).
- Before joining the brothers he had done some seminary studies, and both Colin and Pompallier had encouraged him to resume his study of theology privately in New Zealand with the priesthood in view. But the demands of Kororareka left little opportunity for this and Pierre’s health deteriorated. Travelling on the Rhin from Akaroa with Pompallier and Chouvet in1846, he returned to France where he filled several responsible posts in Marist Brothers' schools till his death on 25 August 1873, aged 78.
