Notes

James & Maryanne ran the store and boarding house at Waihau Bay. Before her marriage she was cook for the 30 men breaking in Matahia Station.
Mary Anne was widowed very young and left to run the store and boarding house and raise her family alone. She ruled them all with a rod of iron, and even when adult they did not find it easy to defy her.
