It must have taken awhile to build. I would like to award you with my award: XXX Keep up the good work!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Ricki E-mail : uretu@hotmail.com Sunday December 3rd 2000 02:27:19 Tena koe I enjoyed browsing your website and commend you on your efforts, but I do have one small concern. I noticed on your link to the major tribes in NZ, you have over looked many important tribes. The tribal system that exists today is a resulting factor of our brutal history and many people forget to mention the importance of certain tribes, these tribes were once proud and strong in numbers. One such tribe is Ngati Pukenga who are decended from the Mataatua waka and have tuakana status over Ngai Tuhoe. Both of whom decend from Ngati Awa. heoi ano nau ano te mana whakahaere a to ake ra ao, he hoa matenga mou kia kore ai koe e whakarerea. naku noa atu Rick ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Robyn Cooper E-mail : Rob.Kupa@xtra.co.nz Sunday November 19th 2000 12:37:11 I was interested in reading the many areas of your pages. Having just found a small portion of my family history after being adopted I am interested in now finding more but all in good time I guess. The best part for me now is that I can put the empty part of my being to a place albeit Northland at least it's a starting place. many thanks for the inspiration.

Enjoyed viewing the guestbook. I note you're from the Taranaki area - I believe I have links there through the Whakaruru (or Ruru) whanau in Waitara. My paternal grandfather was a Whakaruru. You (or anyone else reading this site) wouldn't be able to enlighten me on my links into Taranaki? PS: I am a Hukarere old girl and it was nice to see some of the current Hukarere girls leaving their "mark". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Nga Kotiro o Hukarere Thursday July 20th 2000 08:02:20 Kia Ora, This is some Girls from Hukarere Maori Girls College.
