On the day of the reunion many family members generously brought and shared items from our ancestral home that they held in their posession. It was excellent for us to all see and talk about these and other stories that were then remembered about the old Manuka homestead. It gave the much younger family a better picture of life in those early days. I have included a picture of the old rosewood gramaphone that has pride of place in our house that lots of people came upstairs to see.Here are two images of Isabella's writing compendium - a beautiful writing box that Robert McClymont has in his home.
