Also,
I have found a Cemetery record for Alexander McGregor at the Symonds Street Cemetery at the corner of Symonds St and Karangahape Rd in Auckland.
Although some of the information contained here does contradict itself.
There is a photo of the obelisk / headstone attached to the record.
You can search for it here:

Kia Ora,

I am descendent of Alexander McGregor and Hohipaea Ngapuhi.

My line of descant is as follows:
Alexander James McGregor + Hohipaea (Sophia) Ngapuhi
- My Great, great, great grandparents
James Alexander Hemi Paritu Te Riaki McGregor + Heneti Te Wairama Te Ohaere
- My Great, great Grandparents
Christina McGregor + Wiremu (Bill) Connor
- My Great Grandparents
William Connor + Dorothy Jessie Margaret Coxon
- My Grandparents


I have just been in touch with The Whakatohea Tribal Database Admin, and I was informed that Hohipaea's mother is not Matarena Waitangi, a common mistake it appears. I am still researching her mother's name, possibly Puata, but I have yet to confirm this.
Her father's name is Tuterangikawhia, this was obtained from a Maori Land Court document dated April 1st 1867, in which Hohipaea was making a claim for her mother's land at Te Tawa and Te Ruahoata in Opotiki.

I hope this helps
