Kia ora koutou,

Just wondering if anyone has any information on "Maraea Te Inutoto", and in particular her parents.
There are conflicting opnions on her father being either Hongi Hika, Toro, Pororua, and Wiremu Toto.

We know her husband is "Stephen Lupton Wrathall".

Any help appreciated.

Who was your nana? Makarita/Maki?

Kia Ora puha muncher, Are you related to the Larkin family too? I haven’t seen any helpful info on Toamia hopa to be honest. And it sucks, I know that Uncle Clarke was huge on family genealogy but he’s passed on now rip.

I tried getting as much info from him as I could but I wasn’t close to him, his sister was my favourite and most beautiful grandma ever, Lorna.

Please get back to me! So we can help eachother out. I need to know about toamia too

Regards
Raiden

Āe/yes - i believe so. Not 100% sure as to how though.

I am aware of Clarke Larkin and his searching this whakapapa. But never got to meet him.

Help to assist / help out - pm me.

Seasons greetings.   

I to have visited the archives and will require an address for service once I return home.  I  have photographed a large sensitive file for you, but the photos will first require some editing upon my return home. Involves a leased parcel of land that was originally set aside for a school. One very detailed statement sets out relationships, occupation, and where domiciled/farming & income at time of writing.

Alan

Thanks Alan. I will PM now with email  :)

Hi Puha_Muncher and welcome,


Have you looked on this website?
https://www.maorilandonline.govt.nz/gis/home.htm

There are Hopa families in HB & Gisborne. 


Also some of the CT names 'seem' to be listed surname then first name while others may be first name then surname. 

Do you think Hopa may have been a transliteration of Hope and therefore could be either first name or surname.

Hopa was translated to Job (biblical), and Toamia translated to Thomas.

Thanks for link, will check them out.
