McGregor - Thames Coromandel

Hi,

My name is Bronwyn and my Great, Great, Great Grandmother was also Hohipaea Nga Puhi. We have one image of her with the Moko dressed in European clothing. We would really like to learn more about her and where her and Alexander Mcgregor may be buried. Hohipaea is the link to our Maori heritage in our family history. We have information that she was a Maori Chiefness but are unsure if this is true. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you:)

Hi Bronwyn,
I tried to PM your but it says your inbox is full. I'm also a descendant of Hohipaea and wondering if you would be so kind as to share a copy of the photo you mention with me as I don't believe i've seen it before and would love too.
P.S Kia Ora whanau my lineage;
-Hohipaea and Alex. James McGregor
- James/Hemi Alex. McGregor and Heneti Te Ohaere
- Lena/Rina Kitemate McGregor and John/Jack Savage
- My Nana was Christina Savage who married Ivor Birt

Thanks everyone who has shared on this thread, some great reading!

Hi Jessm63,

Thank you for your reply and not too sure how to use this platform with ease. I have cleared my message so hopefully you can send me your email address as I am also unable to send a message to you. Would be great to connect!
Thanks, Bronwyn
