Thanks for the update.  Nothing ventured nothing gained. At least she replied to you.

In today's Saturday paper, she has contributed an article [as part of our ANZAC acknowledgement] on a McHaffie family with Christchurch, and Hamilton {Waikato}  connections, and Gilbert (junior) who did not return from the WWI, Battle of the Somme.

Alan.

Thanks for the update.

The link below will put the era that you are researching into context. It was all new territory in a Colonial sense. The earliest surveys for land settlement, were only about 10 years old, following the Waikato confiscation.
