Māori and Pākehā whānau

He whānau Māori–Pākehā tēnei i ngā tau mutunga o 1880, ko te whānau Haberfield mai i Te Wai Pounamu. Ka tae mai ngā heremana, ngā kaipatu tohorā, ngā kaipatu kekeno me ngā tāngata tauhokohoko tuatahi, ka ako kia kōrero Māori. Ka moe ētahi o rātou i ā rātou wāhine Māori, kātahi ka tino nui te mōhio ki te kōrero i te reo.
