Hi Di The National Preservation Office which is part of the National Library has a booklet on preserving items such as this. See their website http://www.natlib.govt.nz/about-us/people/structure/national-preservation-of fice. The most important thing is keeping the bible out of the light. It should probably be wrapped in acid free tissue.

Hi Sandra...you are so right...there is not much to go on...I know where they settled, where they died, where they are buried, where they went to school, who their children, grandchildren, great grand.....etc.....etc...I even know who their 2x great grandson is....Ohhh...wait....that's me! The reason why I worded the query with the words... "Looking for descendants of" Is exactly what I was wanting....To meet with....phone....email...etc....Share photos...etc...hence "Looking for descendants of" If I wanted other information I certainly would have included all relevant info....such as....If I wanted to know if Charles John HUBBARD was on the Christchurch Electoral Roll in 1865...I probably would not have asked the list....I have found that all electoral rolls...bdm's etc.... are on fiche at most libraries...sure there are a number of people that do ask for this information...I would only guess they are bed-ridden invalids and unable to visit libraries. There are also people who state in their initial query "looking for....etc...etc". and finish by saying "any information appreciated" Those researches would welcome every snippet of info.... Including the few on-list.....I received 14 replies ....so far....off-list... not one heading me in the direction of a descendant...so there are no new cousins for me to go and have coffee with in the near future. The following of the ones you found.....are mine.... Thank-you for your effort...very much appreciated.

HBH 1892 Aug 2 Page 4 AUBERT **NB by Elaine-typed as written A trip up the Wanganui River-From the Otago Witness. When we reached Hruharama (Jerusalem) we went ashore to pay our respects to Sister Mary Joseph, whose name and fame have recently been blazoned forth in the chemists' shops and advertising columns of the newspapers of the Colony. We found the old lady at home dispensing medicinal aid to a number of waiting Natives in front of the Mission buildings, where there is a level grassy space over-shadowed by well-grown oaks of no inconsiderable size. We found her to be a pleasant, shrewd old Frenchwoman, speaking English with a slight foreign accent, and she received us graciously. Asking us to excuse her for a few minutes, she attended to the wants of the waiting Maoris, and then invited us to inspect the schoolroom. She informed us that it was a difficult matter to do much with the Maori children, as they are subjected to little if any, parental control, being free to go to school or run wild as they list, and they choose the latter alternative-as I fear most children, whether white or dusky, would if left to their own sweet will. The good sisters, of whom there are eight, have some half dozen white children of vicieus parents as the nucleus of their school, and we saw these children at play in the sunshine, looking healthy and happy. The old lady informed us that progress was rather slow, but that they had influenced the Maoris for good. A neat little church, with a lofty, tapering spire, stands on an elevation above the village, forming a pleasing feature in the landscape, and is a monument to the self denying labours of the sisterhood by means of which the funds have been recently provided for its erection, the former church having been burnt down not long ago. Besides the nuns there is a missionary priest resident here, who occasionally visits Ranana, where there is also a little church. The Rev. Father has also another flock besides his dusky parishioners, as he owns 700 acres of land which he has acquired from the natives, and which has been cleared of bush and sown down in English grass. Sister Mary hospitably presented us with some enormous and delicious apples, besides a glass of raspberry vinegar and water.

HBH 1892 Aug 3 p2 GORDON John A Mr John JORDON, writing on New Zealand to the Tyrone Constitution, says of Sir George GREY, "He is the greatest Irishman on this side of the Equator.

HBH 1892 Aug 3 2 Auckland Tuesday Intelligence has been received from Melbourne of the death of ex-Inspector BULLEN at the YARRA Bend Asylum, VICTORIA on the 16th of July.

The Liberal Association has passed a resolution requesting the government to support Mr SHERA'S Property Law Consolidation Bill. A motion is to be considered at the next meeting requesting the government to impose a duty of baulk timber. A man named W.R. HOLBEN, of NEWMARKET, was found dead at night on the floor of his bedroom by his wife. At the inquest a verdict was returned to the effect that the diseased was suffocated by his food getting into his windpipe while vomited after a debauch. The new buildings of the Institute for the Blind were formally opened today by Bishop COWIE.

It was once a flourishing gold mining town beside a beautiful riverbed. My parents owned the Waikino Hotel in the 1980's so am very familiar with the area. Have a look at www.tour.thepeninsular.co.nz for further info on the area. I 'googled' Waikino and there are numerous sites of interest for the history. Cambridge is a beautiful town in the Waikato Province of NZ in the North Island. It is a rich, lush farming area now but I remember as a younger girl driving between Te Awamutu and Cambridge when the farmers were breaking in the land by 'burning off' the poor growth. It is now lovely pastureland. Hautapu Cemetery is looked after by Waipa Council (Te Awamutu) I notice that someone in the Te Awamutu Branch of NZ Society of Genealogists is interested in the WALKER family. Their website for contact details is www.genealogy.org.nz. You may wish to contact them for further research.....there may be a small cost??! Hamilton Library are likely to hold records that would confirm 'where' the couples were married. You can 'google' for contact details.
