Haddon, who was born in 1855, was appointed Professor of Zoology at the Royal College of Science in Dublin after obtaining a first in natural sciences at Cambridge. In 1889, he went to Torres Strait and became interested in recording native custom before it was affected by European contact. After his return to Britain, he accepted a part-time lectureship in physical anthropology at Cambridge, and in 1898 he organised the famous Cambridge University Expedition to Torres Strait, which brought him to Papua (then called British New Guinea). He became Reader in Ethnology at Cambridge in 1908 and remained there until his retirement in 1925. After his death, his numerous papers became part of Cambridge University Library.

The Catholic mission was established on Wallis Island in 1837 by Father (later) Bishop Pierre Bataillon and Brother Joseph-Xavier Luzy, members of the Society of Mary. Together with the island of Futuna, 160 km south-west, Wallis became a French protectorate in 1887, a French colony in 1913, and an overseas territory of France in 1959. The first French Resident, Marius-Antoine Chauvot, arrived in June 1888. Such officials were responsible to the French Governors and, later, High Commissioners of New Caledonia.
