If anyone is able to assist I am trying to find the whakapapa for Wi Pou, from Mangakahia who married Georgiana Meen from England. Wi Pou visted England in the 1860's along with other chiefs from the North including Ngati Horohia Chief, Te Hautakiri Kamariera Wharepapa.
Georgiana was a member of Queen Victorias household and she gave the marriage her blessing. Wi Pou claimed the union had been blessed by the Queen, so their first born was named William Royal Pou. This is how the name Royal/Roera came into effect in the North.
I am the great grandson of William Royals sister, Ngaroma Pou who married Hare Pikari, and subsequently Arena.
If you are able to assist, please contact me at normanbeazley@clear.net.nz or 04-9024822
Posted - 6/09/2008 : 3:26:06 a.m.Hi norman, You have good info . and perhaps if u contact Syria she might be able to connect u to Georgiana's mokopuna Lucy Harrison. Lucy was a wealth of knowledge. By the way Wharepapa is my great grandfather. Lucy is in her eighties so syria might be able to hook u up to the daughter or grand daughter. Well r u pleased to see some sunshine? we r , never been so cold in all my life. Off to Perth soon and I can't wait but we will keep intouch Arohanui Renee and Maitie...
