Preface The project to write this collection of stories started when the Franklin Branch of the New Zealand Society of Genealogists was approached by the Franklin Business & Professional Women who were organising an event to mark the 125th anniversary of the right for women to vote. They asked if we could find any descendants of the women who signed the 1893 petition. As it happened, if there was ever a petition from the Franklin area it did not survive. Legislation was passed on 19 September 1893 and the first election that women could vote in was held on 28 November 1893, a mere 10 weeks later. The branch decided to use this first roll to identify those women of Franklin who had enrolled to vote and to write their stories. In an area defined to include Pokeno, Bombay and Ramarama in the east, Tuakau, Pukekohe, Karaka, Patumahoe and across to Waiuku, Karioitahi and the Awhitu Peninsula in the west, the names of all the local women were extracted from the Franklin and Waipa electoral rolls, a total of more than nine hundred women. We advertised, networked and used known contacts to involve family members to write about their ancestors. Branch members set about researching and writing about others. They were to be short biographies, including a photo if possible, a headstone or newspaper clippings and limited to one page for consistency. The stories have been written in good faith with the best information we were able to gather from a variety of sources. They have highlighted the tough times that were endured – brave women who lived in tents in the bush, women who lost their husbands tragically at a young age and were left to raise many children alone. Children dying of a variety of illnesses that would now be curable and the isolation from the families they left on the other side of the world. There were also tales of strong communities, of good social times and of helpful and caring neighbours. We would like to think that we have captured life as it was for our 1893 women. ‘Women of Franklin on the 1893 electoral rolls’ The publication is in two volumes A-I and J-Z in alphabetical order by surname. The original roll spellings have been used, please be aware of alternative spellings. Sources may not have been entered in full due the nature of family contributions and in some cases available space. New Zealand Society of Genealogists - Franklin Branch 2018.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 1525 Surname: JAMES Given names: Dorcas Ann Residence: Waiuku Occupation: dressmaker Qualification: residential Dorcas Ann JAMES was born on 28 April 1867, the first child of eight born to William John James and Elizabeth Prudence WALTERS who lived at ‘Brookside Farm’, Waitangi (now 412 Bald Hill Road Pukeoware) near Waiuku. Dorcas appeared on the 1893 Electoral Roll as a dressmaker and it would be a profession that would be useful in a country district. Although most country women will turn their hands to anything that “special occasion” garment needs the professional and something extra. In future years Dorcas was on ‘domestic duties’. It could simply have been that with her mother aging and many of her family still living at the farm, these duties were too much for Elizabeth and Dorcas, as eldest daughter, took over the responsibility of the home. Dorcas remained unmarried, as did most of her sisters and one brother. One brother, Joseph John Albert (known as Albert, a saddler) married Ruby BARRIBALL, and one sister, Selina Doney, married Robert PRITCHARD in Queensland, Australia, late in life. At the time of her death Dorcas was still living at Brookside Farm, the family farm her parents developed, as were Richard William Arthur, Alicia Jane, Sarah Louisa James and Selina Doney Pritchard, her brother and sisters. Dorcas passed away on 31 October 1949 at the age of 82. She was buried on 1 November 1949 in Waiuku Cemetery alongside many members of her family.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 1526 Surname: JAMES Given names: Elizabeth Prudena* Residence: Waiuku Occupation: domestic Qualification: residential Elizabeth Prudence* was the second child of Vincent John and Ann WALTERS who had arrived in Australia from Cornwall, England with a baby girl. Elizabeth was born on 1 January 1840 and christened at Mulgoa, New South Wales on 1 November that year. In 1848 the family came to New Zealand on the brig “Louisa”. William John JAMES, born Cornwall, England 1836, met and married Elizabeth on 26 October 1865. A newspaper clipping to celebrate their golden wedding stated that they were married at East Tamaki by Rev. J.S. RISWORTH who was assisted by the Rev. G. BUTTLE. They had eight children – six girls and two boys: 1867-1949 Dorcas Ann 1869-1936 Mary Elizabeth Pawley/Pauley (known as Pollie) 1871-1954 Richard William Arthur 1873-1957 Sarah Louisa 1874-1958 Selina Doney – married Robert PRITCHARD (his second marriage) in 1922 in Queensland 1877-1957 Alicia Jane Walters 1880-1933 Joseph John Albert – married Ruby Ethel BARRIBALL 1904 – they had four children,and 1882-1956 Clarice Augusta. Early electoral rolls had William listed as having premises at which he resided in Waiuku East. However, on the 1880-81 Electoral Roll he was on two lists – residence as before, but also 100 acres Part Lot 65 Waiuku East. It is this block that became the family farm known as ‘Brookside Farm’. Elizabeth and William developed the farm, and many used their grounds and tennis courts. William passed away at ‘Brookside Farm’ 412 Bald Hill Road at the age of 81. His obituary states he (and Elizabeth) had resided at Waiuku for nearly 60 years and were well-known and highly-respected residents. Land on the main road had been donated to be used for community activities. The current Pukeoware Hall is on that land now (2018). William had been a member of the Waiuku Volunteers during the Maori war and saw active service on several occasions. At the time of William’s death on 31 July 1916 his widow and seven of their eight children still resided in Waiuku. Selina was living in Australia but in 1938 returned to New Zealand. Elizabeth passed away on 1 September 1920 at the age of 80. Her death record states that the “Waiuku district has lost a very old resident, and parent of a highly-respected family.” Both William and Elizabeth were buried in the Presbyterian section of the Waiuku Cemetery.

Electoral Roll: Waipa 1315 Surname: JESSUP Given names: Sarah Ann Phillis Residence: Bombay Occupation: domestic duties Qualification: residential Sarah Ann Phillis COLLINS was the daughter of James Allston Collins and was born in London about 1837. Her father was a lighterman, operating barges on the Thames. On 6 April 1863 she married John JESSUP, at St Andrew, Bethnal Green, Tower Hamlets, London. John was born at North Fleet, Kent, in 1837 and had joined the Navy as a young lad. His career included service as aide de camp to Admiral Edmondson on HMS Aragon and several voyages to South Africa in connection with suppression of the slave trade. Sarah and John Jessup emigrated from England to New Zealand in 1865. They sailed on the Bombay, leaving London on 26 November 1864 and arriving in Auckland on 18 March 1865. The couple settled in Bombay, the district named after the ship many of the settlers had come on. What a far cry this was from their previous lives for both Sarah Ann and John. No longer leading lives connected closely with water-based occupations, Sarah Ann and John took up farming at Bombay. The district had been surveyed into 10-acre sections and converting the bush to pasture was no easy task. Sarah and John’s family included Elizabeth Phillis who married George Wootten, Jane who married Henry Wootten, James Edward (who died at 20 months), Sarah Rebekah who married John Howie, Annie Ellen who married Robert Smith and John who married Helen Westray. Sarah’s daughter Elizabeth was the first European girl born in the settlement after the arrival of the ship Bombay. Sarah died on 7 March 1900 at the age of 62 and was buried at St Peters in the Forest, Bombay. A notice appeared in the Auckland Star of 7 March 1900: She had 16 grandchildren and 10 greatgrandchildren. Her husband John died 22 years later in 1922 at the age of 85. By the time of his death he was survived only by his four daughters, having outlived both his sons.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 1565 Surname: JOHNS Given names: Martha Residence: Pukekohe Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Martha was born Martha HENWOOD, the daughter of Thomas Henwood (1810-1878) and Jane SNELL (1811 -1855) and was baptised on 12 November 1851 at St Teath, Camelford, Cornwall, England. She was the tenth of eleven children and after her mother died in 1855 her father brought his eight surviving children to New Zealand where they settled on land at Mangere and Martha attended school. Her father remarried, and another seven children were born, making a total of 17 siblings for Martha. On 11 June 1870 she married John JOHNS at her father’s residence, Carkeen, Mangere, Auckland. He was a farmer and they lived at Mangere for some years before moving to Pukekohe. Here they had 350 acres, running sheep, cattle and horses. The house was described in a report as being a well built, eight roomed weatherboard house, surrounded by two acres of orchard. Martha and John had a family of twelve children – eight sons and four daughters. They also farmed at Te Awamutu before retiring to Mt Eden where John died 22 October 1929. Martha died at her daughter’s place in Mt Eden on 14 November 1942 and is buried with John at Mangere.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 1585 Surname: JOHNSTON Given names: Eliza Residence: Pukekohe West Occupation: domestic duties Qualification: residential Elizabeth (Eliza) came to New Zealand on the Ganges with her first husband, George HALLIDAY and their two children Andrew age 3 and Annie age 1. Sadly, just five days after the ship arrived in Auckland on 14 February 1865, Andrew died. There were 54 children who died during the voyage and Andrew probably died of the same causes, bronchitis and whooping cough. Another son, James, was born in New Zealand in 1866 but once again Eliza was to experience the pain of death when George died in 1868 at just 34, leaving her with two small children to care for. Annie was seven, James just three when Eliza married James JOHNSTON (1828-1926) in 1871, a widower with three small children, two sons, Charles and Thomas and a daughter, Jane. Five more children were born – four sons, William, John, Arthur and Robert and one daughter, Eliza, making a total of ten children. James who had arrived as a young married man on the Ganges had taken up his 10 acre land grant in Helvetia but the family had moved to a holding on Nelson Street about 1882. Life would have been hard but times got even tougher when James filed for bankruptcy in December 1890. Eliza would not get the opportunity to cast her vote, as on 25 November 1893, just three days before the election, Elizabeth died while out walking (NZ Herald 27 Nov 1893). James lived to be 98 and died in 1926.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 1583 Surname: JOHNSTON Given names: Elizabeth Residence: Buckland Occupation: domestic duties Qualification: residential Elizabeth HEWITT, daughter of James Hewitt and Mary AUSTIN, was born about 1848 in County Armagh, Ireland. She arrived in New Zealand c1866 and married Robert JOHNSTON on 5 January 1871 in the Pukekohe area. In 1890 Robert's qualification for the electoral roll was Pukekohe Lot 25 Section 2, 10 acres freehold. Robert Johnston was born c1840 in Toureen, Annacarty, Tipperary, Eire. He died in Cambridge, 18 June 1920. Robert arrived in New Zealand c1864 and had worked as a plate layer on the railways. He had also helped to drain the swamplands where the present Pukekohe Race Course is. When he retired from the railways he went farming in Harrisville and later Buckland and was instrumental in establishing the Buckland Anglican Church. Robert and Elizabeth had 10 children between 1871 and 1891: Mary Jane, Annie (married William McGOWAN), Edward, Eda Eliza (married Frederick FINLEY), Robert (lived in Alberta Canada and died in USA), William, Joseph Howard, John, Albert Edward and Lillian Gladys (married Alan FISHER). In 1928 Elizabeth was living with her daughter Mary Jane Johnston at Thornton Rd, Cambridge. Elizabeth died 3 December 1933 in Cambridge, where she had lived since c1920.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 3618 Surname: JOHNSTON Given names: Elizabeth Anne Residence: Mauku Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Elizabeth Anna (or Anne) BLACKBURN was born c1842 in Lambeg, County Antrim, Northern Ireland, the daughter of John Blackburn. On 3 June 1867 she married Robert JOHNSTON in Belfast. They had a son, James Harvey born on 13 September 1868 and sometime after that they left Ireland and came to New Zealand. Maybe they were the Robert Johnston and family on the ship Percy that arrived in Auckland on 3 March 1869. Another son, George Henry was born in 1871 in New Zealand. The family settled at Mauku, where in early electoral rolls Robert was recorded as having 10 acres at Mauku but this advertisement selling their property in 1892, describes 80 acres with a substantial home. It seems that Elizabeth and Robert did eventually sell their farm and move, as when Elizabeth died on 3 August 1902, it was at Mt Roskill. Robert died 19 June 1917 and they are both buried at Purewa Cemetery.

Electoral Roll: Waipa 3691 Surname: JOHNSTON Given names: Harriet Residence: Pokeno Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential In 1892 an English immigrant, Miss Harriet JOHNSTON, arrived in New Zealand. She was to become a great benefactor to the district, her first undertaking being the building of St Mary’s Church, Pokeno. It is reported that the contract price to build it was £690, which was defrayed by Miss Johnston and that price did not include the fittings which are also her gift. In the book, ‘St Mary on the Hill, Pokeno 1900 – 2000’, author Dora Hessell writes – We have been unable to discover her antecedents or her reason for settling in Pokeno. Her death certificate gives her mother’s maiden name as ROEBUCK and shows that she was already sixty three years old when she came. She brought with her to the Pokeno district Francis PYNE, probably a kinsman, who grew up in her household, married and continued to live there, sharing her work for the church and becoming her heir. Continuing from the book – A Mr Thomas BATES was Miss Johnston’s friend and gardener back in England. He and his wife Sarah and family sailed for New Zealand in 1890, their passage being paid by Miss Johnston. In the new land he would again be gardener and take care of her house. Miss Johnston lived in some style in a handsome two and a half- storied house. Ground floor for the servants, first floor living and upper floor for bedrooms. “The Springs” with an extensive garden was on a site near the church. It was recorded in the minutes of the Standing Committee of 12 October 1899 that Miss Johnston would give £50 a year towards the stipend – a generous benefactor indeed. She also gave a beautiful stained glass window, installed in 1910. Apart from church activities, Harriet also enjoyed her tennis and it was known that binoculars were used to see if there was any activity at the courts and if so, she was soon on her way. When she wished to play tennis a flag flew from the upper story of her house. Harriet Johnston died in 1916 at the age of 87 and is buried at Pokeno cemetery.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 4057 Surname: JOHNSTONE* Given names: Annie Residence: Buckland Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Annie’s signature on probate records for William, 1950 Annie JOHNSTONE – actually JOHNSTON*, was born in New Zealand (probably Pukekohe) in 1872. She was the daughter of Robert Johnston (1841-1920) and Elizabeth HEWITT (1849-1933) both longtime residents of Pukekohe and Buckland. Annie was the second of ten children, 4 daughters and six sons, so no doubt would have helped at home before her marriage to William McGOWAN in 1898. Their only child Howard Gordon was born in Tuakau. It is probably safe to assume that William McGowan was the blacksmith who was at Waiuku in 1896 but on the electoral roll in Tuakau as a blacksmith in 1900, 1905 and 1911. By 1914 Annie and William had moved to Papatoetoe and taken up farming. They were to spend the rest of their days in this locality at their property they called Ashlynn. Son Howard was a schoolteacher and later a Headmaster at several schools – in Kerepehi in 1950 and in Northland later. William died on 29 May 1950 and Annie on 13 January 1953. They are buried side by side, with separate headstones at the Papatoetoe cemetery.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 3620 Surname: JONES Given names: Annie Pinfold Residence: Buckland Occupation: domestic duties Qualification: residential When Annie Pinfold JONES appeared on the 1893 electoral roll she was the wife of Frederick Jones, farmer Buckland, freehold part Lots 9 and 12 Buckland. She was the mother of Frederick Reginald, Acheson John, Constance Mary and Esther Elizabeth who were also on the 1893 Franklin roll. Other children were Hugh Kennedy, Edith Evening and Clarice Norah. Annie had married Frederick in Melbourne, Australia in 1866 – quoted in many family trees but not confirmed. Frederick Acheson Jones was born in Mauritius in 1838. The first two children were born in Redfern, Sydney and they had come to New Zealand via Tonga where son Hugh was born in 1878. Two children were born in New Zealand – Edith in 1879 and Clarice in 1882 with the mother’s name being recorded as Hannah Pinfold Jones. In 1905 Annie and Frederick were living at Edendale, Mt Roskill, Auckland and that is where she died in 1909. Annie is buried at Purewa together with her husband and daughter Constance.

Constance’s brother Hugh was born in Tonga in 1878 and her next sibling was born in New Zealand in 1879, so the family obviously moved about. Although her father appeared on the 1893 electoral roll as a farmer at Buckland, owning land there, his usual occupation was given as gentleman. Constance qualified as a nurse and this is her entry in the Register of Nurses in the NZ Gazette. In her father’s will, dated 1 June 1911, when Constance had been in Woking, England, he wrote; Constance nursed her father at their home in Sandringham Road, Auckland until his death 14 October 1930, aged 92. She died 15 November 1946, leaving a considerable estate, naming her siblings or their partners and her 15 nieces and nephews as beneficiaries. She remained single and is buried at Purewa cemetery with her parents.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 1541 Surname: JONES Given names: Mary Ann Residence: Buckland Occupation: domestic duties Qualification: residential Mary was born Mary Ann OVENS at McGillivray, Ontario, Canada on 2 March 1855. She was the third child of at least ten born to Stewart Ovens and Mary CRUISE (10 children on the 1871 Canadian census, see below), who were farmers of Irish descent. On 17 March 1879 in Middlesex, Ontario, Mary married John JONES (1848-1941). John had been born in Canada to Welsh parents and did not speak English until he went to school. They had three children born in Canada – 1881 John Russel, 1882 Mary Edith Lloyd, 1884 Rubie Maud Martha Cruise and one born in New Zealand 1895 Stewart Thomas. Mary, John and the family came to New Zealand c1888. They settled in Buckland where they farmed until 1905. They then farmed at Waiau Pa until 1911 when they decided to return to Canada. Unable to settle and missing the New Zealand lifestyle, they returned after a year and bought a house in Church St, Penrose, where they lived until their deaths. Mary died in 1932 and John in 1941 – they were survived only by their two daughters as both sons had died – John in 1908 and Stewart (spelt Stuart on the memorial) was killed in action in 1918. They are buried in Pukekohe Cemetery with their son and grandson Stewart GILL.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 3626 Surname: JONES Given names: Susan Residence: Waipipi Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Susan was born Susan FAULKNER in Manchester, England and she went to South Africa then Australia. It is not known when she met her husband – John JONES but they married in 1855 in Australia, possibly at Bathurst at the goldfields. Susan was a bit of a renegade – she cut her hair short. Her mother had appointed her to accompany her father John, to look after him. Early married life was pretty primitive, and she related that her father John Faulkner slept in the wagon and she and “Jones” – she always referred to her husband in this vein – slept underneath. She apparently adopted this method of differentiating between her father John, husband John, and son John. They may have gone to Queensland to work in the cane fields. Eldest daughter Margaret was born in 1856 in Australia probably at Bundaberg. They must have returned to England between 1856-58 as Samuel was born in 1858 at Doncaster where Margaret died of measles. They next moved to Cape of Good Hope where William [1860] and Sarah [1863] were born. The next move was on 18 August 1864 when the family left in the Hamburg barque “Steinwarder” for New Zealand, arriving at Auckland on 14 October 1864. The family apparently received assistance to emigrate. Son John was recorded as being born at Newton, Auckland in 1865 and George at Waipipi in 1867 so this was when the connection to the Waipipi district started. They had a small holding situated on Keogh Road between Craig Road and Creamery Road, Waipipi. Five more children were born – Walter 1872, Matilda 1874, Mary 1874, Alfred 1876, and Henry 1879. Early experiences at Waipipi were very severe also and relatives were told they had been forced to dig up the seed potatoes for food at times. Susan, along with John, is buried at the Waipipi Cemetery. She died on 28 September 1926.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 4060 Surname: JOUNING Given names: Harriet Sinclair Residence: Waiuku Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Harriet Sinclair JOUNING was born Harriet Sinclair WILSON on 7 November 1869 to John WILSON and Catherine SINCLAIR in Cullen, Banff, Scotland. Harriet met William Henry Jouning and married on 2 November 1893, in New Zealand. William Henry was born Henry William on 23 June 1869 to John Henry Jouning and Betsy Ruge BELL (known as Bessie) in New Zealand, in a family of nine children, six boys and three girls. Harriet and William made their home in Waiuku and started to raise their family. William made his living as a bootmaker. They had three children, all girls, and none of them married. Marion Harriet – born 25 June 1893 – died 11 April 1986 Hilda May – born 24 July 1896 – died 17 August 1982 Vera Adeline – born 30 July 1897 – died 22 January 1989 In the early 1900’s the family moved to Bond Street, Grey Lynn, Auckland and William continued to work as a bootmaker. Life was not easy for the family and by 1911 they had moved again, to Lower Hepburn Street in Freeman’s Bay. William was working as a labourer at that time. The family had grown and were now young ladies but sadly their father William passed away 6 April 1914 at the age 45. He was laid to rest in Purewa Cemetery, Meadowbank, Auckland. The three daughters continued to live with Harriet, firstly in 10 Montague Street and then 77 Margan Avenue, New Lynn. Harriet passed away 12 April 1945, aged 75, at Margan Avenue. She was laid to rest beside William in Purewa Cemetery. The ashes of all three daughters were placed with their mother.

She was the third child of John Reuben Cripps Jenner (1792-1883) and Rebecca TURNER (1805-1851) and had six sisters and four brothers. On 23 December 1860, Ellen married Henry KAYES at the Crayford Parish Church, Kent, England. Their first three children, all little girls died very young. Alice born 1861 died in 1863 and Clare born 1862 died 1863. Maybe this was one of the reasons the couple decided to make a new life in New Zealand and boarded the Lancashire Witch on 10 February 1865. Tragedy was to strike again and Grace, born in 1864, was one of the twelve children who died on the voyage. What a dreadful trip it must have been for Ellen, as she was pregnant and had to endure 112 days at sea in cramped conditions and deal with the death of young Grace. Charles was born a few months after they arrived in Auckland and another eight children were to follow, making a family of seven daughters and five sons in all. The youngest daughter, Ann Emily died aged 23 months. The family settled to farm at Pukekohe on Lots 119 and 121 and the children attended Pukekohe School, including their granddaughter Bertha Ann, daughter of Susan, who was raised by her grandparents. They remained on this property until their deaths. Ellen died on 29 March 1906 and Henry on 23 September 1912. They are buried with their daughter Maude in Pukekohe cemetery. They have a road named after them in the north area of Pukekohe. The inscription reads: In loving memory of Ellen beloved wife of Henry KAYES died March 29th 1906 aged 61 years.

Two more daughters and two sons were born in New Zealand between 1884 and 1889, where they settled on Lot 15, Section 3 of the Parish of Pukekohe and Denis continued his trade as a carpenter. He died on 21 October 1902 and Bridget on 19 April 1921. They are buried in the Pukekohe Catholic cemetery but have no headstones, maybe as a result of the dispute over her will (see left).

She had four sisters and two brothers. She was eight years old when her parents and at that time, three sisters and grandfather Ronan decided to immigrate to New Zealand. As the oldest daughter no doubt Ellen was required to help in the home but she gave her occupation in the electoral rolls from 1893 until 1900 as dressmaker, so she found time to persue this talent. On 13 February 1902 she married Alexander Scott SPROUL (1877-1960) and they had a family of two daughters and two sons born between 1902 and 1906. They farmed first at Puni, then Pukekohe West. Ellen was one of the daughters who disputed her mothers will – Bridget had left everything to her two sons – and the claim was upheld. Ellen and her sisters claimed that they had lent money and provided services over many years while their mother was in poor health. Ellen was awarded £118 by the court. Ellen died on 20 June 1947 and is buried in the Pukekohe Catholic cemetery and Alexander died in 1960 and is buried in Pukekohe Public cemetery.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 3628 Surname: KELLAND Given names: Jane Residence: Waipipi Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Jane KELLAND was born Jane WERRY on 22 July 1862 in Cornwall, England to William Werry and Ann Amelia WINGENT, one of nine children (six girls and three boys). Father, William, died in England in 1895 but had been a farmer of 200 acres employing 3 men and a boy. At that stage Jane was living in New Zealand and had met and married Frank Kelland – 27 July 1892 at St Barnabas Church, Mt Eden, by the Rev. W.H. JOHNSTON. Frank is recorded as living at Sandridge, Waipipi and Jane in Remuera. Jane and Frank had four children: 1893 – Ruth – only lived eight hours 1896 – Louisa May (also called Queenie) 1897 – William Harold 1902 – Gertrude Clara (also called Trudy). Electoral Rolls have Frank owning 225 acres at Waipipi in the form of Lot 160, 186/7, part 324. Kelland Road today joins on to Creamery Road at the junction of Coronation Road, and on across Kohekohe/Karioitahi Road. A newspaper article acknowledges the quality of the stock (sheep and fat stock) “…. and arrive at one of the best-worked farms in the district, that of Mr F. Kelland.” The setting for the homestead must also have been well chosen from a description in that same article. “Being invited for lunch I have the opportunity of viewing the magnificent outlook from Mr Kelland’s verandah. The N.S.S. Weka can be plainly seen all the way up the creek from Te Toro Wharf, and a fine view of most of the surrounding country is obtainable.” Other articles tell of hunts being held over the Kelland Farm and several neighbouring farms. John Wingent Werry (brother) arrived in New Zealand prior to Jane and further research shows Thomas (brother), Ethel (sister) and Ann (mother) followed, exactly when is uncertain. Mother, Ann, lived with Jane for some time and they got involved with things like fundraising for the men at the front – both making a financial donation to the SOCK fund while others knitted. Frank passed away 2 January 1922 and is buried at Purewa Cemetery (Block A Row 30 Plot 76). Jane continued on the farm with the help of son William who married Kathleen FORDE on 17 April 1926 at the Anglican Church, Royal Oak, Auckland and they had a daughter Gwendoline Dorothy. (Allan John RAINBOW – husband). Jane’s two daughters were still at Waipipi on 1938 Electoral Roll. However, life became difficult over the next few years as Jane’s mother died 27 December 1931 and was buried at Waikaraka Cemetery. In her will she left funds to Jane and her grandson William. William’s wife Kathleen died on 16 December 1932 after a long illness and William passed away on 11 November 1938. Both were buried in Waipipi Cemetery. Gertrude married Seymour BENT on 1 October 1942 and they farmed in Warkworth before moving to Otumoetai and then Te Puke. It is possible that Jane and her sister Ethel, along with her daughter Louisa, were living together in Sandspit Road. Jane passed away at her residence in Sandspit Road on 27 January 1943 and was buried at Purewa Cemetery, Block A Row 30 Plot 75 beside Frank.

Electoral Roll: Franklin 3631 Surname: KELLY Given names: Hannah Residence: Waipipi Occupation: household duties Qualification: residential Hannah was born c1827 and came to New Zealand with her husband, Thomas KELLY and their two daughters Hannah (c1861) and Margaret (c1863) on board the “Alfred” on 16 November 1864 having left Cape Town on 27 September. There were 251 passengers and cargo on the ship. It appears many wanted to escape the climate of Africa and when advertisements appeared for free passage to five acres of free land in New Zealand, there was a stampede to register. Many did not stay for long as they found the cash income from the small acreage could not support their families. Those who settled for life were named the ‘Cape Pigeons’ in memory of their origin. Their allotments were sited off Craig, Creamery and Parakau Roads, Waipipi. Thomas and Hannah were granted Lot 54, Part Lot 184, Waipipi. Their family increased by two boys at Waipipi; Michael (1865-1932) and Adrian Thomas (1871-1914), and they continued to work hard on their farm. However, life in their later years was difficult as both Thomas and Hannah suffered ill health. Hannah was indeed an invalid for many years prior to her death. Thomas died 2 October 1907 and Hannah died 16 June 1914. They are buried with their sons in Waipipi Cemetery. Hannah (known as Annie), the eldest child, entered a religious order in her youth, but she was allowed to return to private life to care for her aging parents. When they passed she continued to care for her brothers and she became a district legend for her willingness to help any household in time of sickness or other needs as she had been taught nursing and hospitality at the Convent. She is especially remembered for having fostered an orphan girl, Annie MALONEY (Mrs Alex DRUMMOND), who was her companion for life. A Post Office was built, originally in a movable building on skids attached to her house, and Annie served as Post Mistress for 24 years from 1908. Annie died 25 December 1941, aged 82, and the property was passed to Dromgool relatives; her sister Margaret married James DROMGOOL. Annie was buried at Waipipi Cemetery after a Service at the Waipipi Catholic Church.” Sources: “West of the Manukau” – Ben Westhead “Of Pigeons and Pipis” and Waipipi District 150 years Booklet Article –Clyde Hamilton NZ BDM Historical Records Cemetery Records Researcher: Lois Hopping
