Reminiscences Robert Mair Volume 9

DescriptionRobert Mair, son of early Northland settlers, recorded his childhood memories and other material in notebooks. Volume 9, which has an index near the back, includes handwritten copies of Robert Mair and Gilbert Mair's correspondence, newspaper extracts, and recollections of everyday events like an American polar expedition, whalers, the kauri gum trade, and a woman's murder in Whangarei. He describes various locations such as [Te] Wahapu, Poor Knights, Ngunguru, Matakohe, Manaia and includes photographs.
This material was donated by his great-grandson Kenneth Mair, with other family papers at Alexander Turnbull Library.Author/CreatorRobert MairFormatDiary
