Whakaki Genealogies - A short history of some of the eponymous ancestors of Whakaki.
Whakaki people regard 3 hapu or sub-tribes as belonging to Whakaki. These sub-tribes are discussed here. Like most small villages/places of New Zealand, Whakaki has its stories and legends that lend to its nature. Whakaki is no different. Here I relate the story of Hine o Rangi, the lovely Maori miss of this particular story has been immortalized by lending her name to our maunga/mountain. A monthly newsletter/panui edited and presented by Aaron "the baron" Munro, son of Pura and Wai Munro. A newsy item with a special Aaron flavour, that has a round up of the news and events of the Whakaki whanau, living here and away. A must read.
