Etymology

Favona was the name of a race horse who came to prominence in the 1890s, who raised on John Lennard's farm in Māngere. In 1899 Hugh Mosman, member of the Queensland Legislative Council, purchased 300 acres of farmland in the area, calling his estate the Favona Farm.

In January 1836 missionary William Thomas Fairburn brokered a land sale between Tāmaki Māori chiefs, Pōtatau Te Wherowhero and Turia of Ngāti Te Rau, covering the majority of modern-day South Auckland between Ōtāhuhu and Papakura. The sale was envisioned as a way to end hostilities in the area, but it is unclear what the chiefs understood or consented to. Māori continued to live in South Auckland, unchanged by this sale. Fairburn was criticised for the sheer size of the purchase, and in 1842 the Crown significantly reduced the size of his land holdings,Шаблон:Sfn and the Crown partitioned much of the land for European settlers. Until the 1860s, the Māori population of the Manukau Harbour and Waikato areas produced goods to sell or barter at the port of Onehunga.Шаблон:Rp On 9 July 1863, due to fears of the Māori King Movement, Governor Grey proclaimed that all Māori living in the South Auckland area needed to swear loyalty to the Queen and give up their weapons.
