• Thomas was a pioneer settler leaving a lasting mark on Tararua as a road builder, postmaster, store owner and community leader. In 1874, along with J.H. Monteith, they took over the contract for road formation and bridges between Woodville and the Manawatu River. He acquired land, opened the first store and was the first Road Board chairman, a postmaster and a church warden.

He had no children when he died but became known as the Father of Woodville. When he died with no wife or children, he left his farm at Otawhao near Kumeroa, to his cousin Charles Douglas Fountaine, who took over managing the property in 1927.
