He made one voyage in the Mission Steamer Southern Cross with the late Bishop Patterson. He enjoyed many experiences in the New Zealand bush and goldfield before taking up with journalism in connection with the New Zealand Herald. In 1870 he married a daughter of the late Mr Thomas Drought of Plunketstown House, Castledermot, Ireland and shortly afterwards returned to England. He again took up journalism, being for a time editor of the Yorkshire Gazette and pursued that vocation with success until 1886, when he was appointed registrar and chapter clerk to the Dean and Chapter of York, an appointment he held up to his death. Mr Whytehead\'s family has been settled in Yorkshire since the middle of the 17th century.

He was a past Grand Officer of England and New Zealand, a Past Master of the Quatuor Coronati Lodge, the Literary Lodge of the Rosierucian Society of England and the head of that Order in Yorkshire and was Provincial Grand master of the Royal Order of Scotland.
