The information I have is quite vauge. I was wondering if anyone could tell me information of the lady above, so far I have that she was an Ariki Chieftainess of Ngati Pakau - Ngati Kapuna related to sub trives of Ngapuhinui. Hauauru was married to Thomas John Birch. Sarah, her daughter was born on 25 December 1844 at Taheke and had four brothers Abraham, Thomas, William and Walter and were direct descendants of Kupe. Sarah was only three years old when her mother died and was brought up by an aunt, Ani Patene who was a half sister to her mother Hauauru. Sarah married Charles Williams. The family had a reunion up in Waitangi in 1993. I would dearly love to learn about my family heritage so if you know of anything please email me.

I have asked my uncle,Bill Murphy(whom is into our family tree and records) for information as to which tribe I may desend from,yet he has not been forthcoming with any info,except that from our pakiha side.(I have asked everyone,some deny it,some say they don't know or don't care to) There has been much predgudice with in our family,lots of well kept secrets. I am proud of who I am,have become,yet I feel a little lost, (unwhole) not knowing or being told of my Maori whakapapa.I don't know how I can find this out on my own! Could you please advise me on ways I could find this out? I could be Kai Tahu, as my family lived for a long time on the west coast of the south Island,greymouth,hokitika,punakaiki. I am learning my Te Reo,weaving and I assist my partner,(Ta Moko artist)Ben Te Hau Mcdonald, with his mahi.It's truely great to be connecting and sharing with that part of myself that I've always felt connected to, yet, it would be so great to fully know my own whakapapa and be a better part of it.

Thankfully, because you are in the Otago area, it should be easier to look for the european members of your family, then you can trace maori members through the minute books as long as you are aware of their maori names (or aliases).

I was saddened too myself to hear about Uncle Leo's passing also. I last saw Uncle Leo at my mum's tangi back in 2001. I was last at Matangirau just last Saturday for my late mum's unvieling of her kohatu (headstone)..... and it was great to catch up with the whanau. My late mother's maiden name was "Te Awa" and her mother was a "Tupe". You should go and visit Matangirau for the Pomana Whakapapa and catch up with the rellies. I don't get back myself as often as I should, but my tupuna-matua are from there. Good Luck!

But if her maiden name was Pene she could be related to Ngakuru Pene Hare. He was a tohunga who lived in the area of Kaihu and Waimamaku. His descendants took the name Pene or more commonly Penney. The whanau spread and there is a strong connection of that whanau with Mitimiti. My whanau hail from Mitimiti and are closely related to the Pene whanau there. Your posting nearly threw me off when I saw the name Opotiki. I wondered at first if this was a request from down the line.
