This chapter has information on our family history for the period pre-european New Zealand arrival. It has information on both our English and Maori ancestors and our connections to them. Learning about our ancestors is an integral part of learning our history as it not only explains how their deeds and actions have led to us where we are today, but have also shaped who we are today.
Any corrections, additional information or pictures relevant to this page are welcome and can be submitted to myself, or through the website contacts in the sidebar. Accreditation is given, where applicable. Many thanks to all those who have contributed.
