Hi Lexxbabe

I havent got much information on Mary Taruke Taite - she was my great grandmother - my grandmother was Harriet's sister.

I have a photo of Mary and my great grandfather John McGregor.  They passed away in 1945 and are buried at Waikumete Cemetary in Auckland.  I believe they lived in the Raglan area and moved to Riverhead later on.

Im keen to learn more too.

Regards
Crystal

Dawn's connection is through Henry McGregor born 1853 who married Mary Josephine Conway.Their daughter Flora May McGregor born 1883 married Monte George Waller.They had Nina May Waller who married George Clinton Petersen.

We would like to hear from you to share family info.

Thanks Ken
