Oruaiti |
Pos S35°00.162
E173°35.023 |
Oruaiti is a small valley settlement located between Mangonui and Whangaroa Harbour. It was settled by a devout, hardworking people from England who were somewhat reclusive and introverted. Nevertheless they proved a rock in a sea of change, and must be credited with providing the base of European morality and steadfastness that lingers in their descendants today.
The cemetery is located on a sunny hillside to the east of the road, looking out over the now green pastureland. Most of the families buried here have genealogies drawn almost exclusively from those described in Gwenyth Frear's books about the Totara North and inland region, but additions have been made as names in the associated genealogies have been investigated and traced. Headstone pictures are available by emailing the code revealed by moving the mouse over the blue cross in each entry. |
