Katikati
Katikati is a town in New Zealand (North Island) located on the Uretara Stream near a tidal inlet towards the northern end of Tauranga Harbour, 28 kilometres south of Waihi and 40 kilometres northwest of Tauranga. State Highway 2 passes through the town; a bypass scheduled to have begun construction in 2008〔(NZTA: Katikati Bypass )〕 is on hold.
==History==
Katikati was settled in 1875 by Ulster Scots people〔(BBC Northern Ireland report )〕 from County Tyrone in Ireland through the Orange Institution. The settlement was established by the Irishman
George Vesey Stewart, who led two groups of settlers there aboard the ships ''Carisbrook Castle'' (1875) and ''Lady Jocelyn'' (1878). The land upon which the town was built was confiscated from local Māori after the Land Wars and was given to the settlers by the Central Government.
The settlement was formed from two distinct groups "the settlers useful and the settlers ornamental" referring to the tenant farmers and those with wealth. The settlement managed to withstand early economic problems and developed into a healthy town, based around farming and agriculture.
