Please keep up the fantastic effort. Arohamai.

Thanks to Nerolie for her positive comment about viewing whanau names. If you open the book on any page you are offered 3 choices in the box below: a faithful transcription of the words as they were written at the time; a transcription with modern punctuation and macrons and a transcription and translation into English. 'Hope you enjoy reading their korero and thanks to Te Taura Whiri i te reo Maori The Maori Language Commission for all of the transcription and translation work on the Visitors Book.

Remana Nutana (Mangere Bridge) and Wahanga Wetini (Raglan). These two people are mentioned in the above book. Does anyone have a portrait or pictures of these two people? They feature on entry number 152.

To answer John Anstis'comment - Lindauer painted hundreds of works and this website is limited to those in public collections. Unfortunately these two portraits are not part of the holdings of art museums that have contributed so far.

Tena rawa atu koe Te Pikikotuku. Kai te tika tau. Aroha mai. While the comment is incorrect -as you have rightly pointed out- it is an historic comment recorded in the pukapuka manuhiri in 1902. I will attach a note to our records for Rewi Manga Maniapoto, noting your korero.

I note in gallery visitors book a comment about Tupotahi being a brother to Manga Maniapoto. see following extract...... "Mei 24 (1902) Tupotahi Tukorehu (memo - brother of Rewi Manga Maniapoto) Kihikihi " For your information, Tupotahi and Manga were in fact cousins not brothers. Their grandfathers were half brothers....
