Look up Maori Land Court Minute Book
« on: Tuesday 09 June 20 08:29 BST (UK) »
Is there some kind person who could visit a Maori Land Court to obtain a copy/photograph of the following:

Tamati Whatitiri
Appeal Succession
Waikato Minute Book No 30 pages 63-70
25 April 1901
Sitting Cambridge

I have previously requested a Maori Land Court for a copy of Minute Book documents, however these have not been responded to, hence my request.

Hi TPB,

I see that there are three hits on Archway for 'Tamati Whatitiri'. Two of the files are restricted, but might they what you're after?

Thanks Spades.  Yes I am aware of these items on Archway.
I am hoping that the succession document will identify family members and other relevant information.
A Tamati Whatitiri aka Tamati Whatitiri Hutchinson has been linked to Dorothy Tapsil [Tapsell] as "spouse/partner".
I am checking source documents, as I have been unable to confirm this, to see if there is any link.
I have contacted several people who have these names in family trees on Ancestry, but they have been unable to assist.
Maori Land Court documents can be a "mine" of information as I have discovered recently.  The succession document should help me construct a family tree to rule him in or out.

Hi TPB,

Understood. I did note that the two latter files are each part of a larger tranche of files which might be of use to you in other ways.

If you change your mind in the future, let me know and I'll see if I can get them.
