List is rather incomplete

When you follow this GoogleBooks link, you'll get to see that Isaac Featherston was Colonial Secretary. Any objections to updating the list? I couldn't see where it comes from - has anybody got a resource that gives the full list? The following source shows some dates, but NZETC is often wrong with those kind of details.

You may as well. I was going to add James Crowe Richmond to the list for his short 4-month term as Colonial Secretary in 1865 at the tail end of the Weld government. I suppose if anyone has any objections to my (or your) edit due to his role as what is basically a caretaker then they can just remove it. Kytok (talk) 05:57, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, this needs a lot of work done to it. William Richmond was Colonial Secretary from 2 June to 4 November 1856, and he's not in the list either. I have a copy of the New Zealand Parliamentary Record from 1925^[1] and when I've got the time and inclination, I shall go through it and see whether I can compile a list.

Carroll was never Colonial Secretaty according to Wilson (1985) (p102) tho he was shown as Colonial Secretary from 20 December 1895 (amended). He was initially minister without portfolio, then "Native Affairs" and "Stamp Duties" Hugo999 (talk) 01:09, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
