James and Kahumahinga refered to below are my GG Grandparents on mum's side. (nee Pauline Reed)
Not sure which person is their granddaughter. Click on the title to link back to the source of the picture.
From the Alexander Turnbull Library
The Wallace family on the verandah of their house. A Maori pattern has been carved into a panel which runs along the front of the verandah.Also includes one of the granddaughter's of the whaler James Reed and Kahumahinga of Ngati Toa, the daughter of Sarah Reed and Spencer Von Strumer. Kahumahinga was the daughter of Paretona, a sister Werawera, who was the grandfather of Te Rauparaha. To the Maori mind they were very closely related.
