    1. [nz] Pharpharnua Farm, Whata Whata Hoe, Pirongia
    2. Judith Harper
    3. My grandmother Elsie Beet wrote the above address in a reading book in about 1914. She was about 14 years old and her writing is neat and decisive so I guess she knew her address but then I wonder about the spelling of Maori at that time. So can anyone please tell me what or where Whata Whata Hoe is? I know about Whatawhata but that seems too far away to be included under Pirongia. Any ideas please? And how might Pharpharnua be understood these days? Thanks. Judith Harper Nelson, NZ
