Hi Marcus,

I have been researching my family tree recently and I have found that Lewis Davies (David?) Bickerton is my great, great, great grandfather.  In BDM it says that Isabella Bickerton died in 1927 aged 73 which seems right if she was born in 1954 and married Lewis.  But I have no documents of their marriage, or Isabella's birth to Peti Hineraro Potatau Te Wherowhero, or Peti's birth to Potatau Te Wherowhero.

Are you able to help me with the actual documents and authentication of this?  If I find documents then I can legitimately register to my iwi (Ngaati Maniapoto) and hapuu (Ngaati Mahuta).

Cheers

Scottie
