Thanks for replying!
The info im after is iwi,hapu and marae?

Im the only ine in my family doing research.I didnt know of my ancestry until I was sixteen.My fathers parents are complicated!
willam Nicholls= Susan Te Whakaawa
they had 3 daughters .Harete,Huhana,Hera.Huhana is were my family come in.
Huhana married a Richard Cartman, their daughter(Hannah Cartman) married my dads grand father.
The only other info about my whanau is that they knew my grandad,Gilbert Honey)but he wasnt intersted.His ex wife(my dads mum)didnt like them either,dont know why.All she will tell me is that nana Hannah(who I never met)was good at lawn bowls!lol)
So it knew nothing about any of this until I was a teenager!
I have never met any of my gt gt grandmothers whanau so It feels a bit disslocating!Im pakeha of Maori descent.
Im also an artist,so am curious about tribal designs exc,I also am a pretty good harakeke weaver.
thats enough from me!!
kia ora
