Kawhio on 2009-11-23 20:14:02Redpath name can be located at what was known as mid way camp, located at Pierata in the Waioeka Gorge. There is a small school,a chiller and a few houses in the area.
Pierata is midway between Opotiki on the Bay of Plenty Coast and Gisborne.
All places are on the East Coast of the North Island of N.Z.
S.Redparth had a deer farm there, he was also a councilor for the Opotiki Dist.
