Talk:Ngāti Rora

Just a few links that I stumbled on recently

Not sure of the accuracy of the following information. That's up for discussion I guess.

Tokanga-nui-a-noho Wharenui (Aotea Harbour)?

The meeting house Te Tokanganui-a-noho originally stood at Motakotako, Aotea Harbour, and was built and carved by Te Whanake for the Ngati Te Wehi tribe. The house was removed to Kawhia where it was burnt down about 1890.

The people in the picture are from left to right: Te Aua Tauwhenua a Ngati Te Wehi Chief; Te Reme Tauira, who married John Ellis, a trader at Motakotako; Te Whareroa, chief of the Ngati Te Wehi; Te Pahi.

Please see letter to the Native Minister from Mr. Robert Bush of Raglan in the AJHR 1874, Section G. - 2B (Native Affairs) page 6, Enclosure No. 8 for further information about the opening celebrations of this meeting house. PG.
