Thank you for all your comments. I spelt his name wrong, it should be John McConchie, he was born in Scotland in 1857 but moved to New Zealand, although I don't know when but he is on the 1881 census.
I don't have the original picture as it was sent to me by email & I have asked if they are able to get a better picture of the badge on the helmet & the sleeve.
Thank you all once again.
