Oriwa or Orewa Hoera Poaka
I am really trying to find out dates about her birth, death, marriage to Sidney Cecil Crapp and where she was buried.
Any help with this I would be so grateful she is a very illusive Wahine.
I do no that her and Sidney Cecil Crapp lived in Ford Street Opotiki when their children were all born,
I can find no information to say that they were married but on Sidneys death certificate it gives a date when married but not to who or where.
Sidney was a government surveyor and was also in the armed constabulary. He fought in Opotiki and won a medal.
I am totally obsessed with finding out where our beautiful Great Grandmother is buried, I have visited Sidneys grave i am going to go back and clean it up one weekend soon.
Thankyou for all the information on my page especially about the grave may be we will find Oriwa? Orewa? My obsession with her brought me to Opotiki to live, I lived in Northland for 20 years and I have been down here for the last five years.
Any information would be gratefully recieved.
Cheers Jude
