I offer my assistance for early settlers to Carterton District, especially the Clareville Cemetery, also known in the past as Taratahi Cemetery in Chester Road. Clareville.

If anyone has information for the Soldiers from WW1 buried at Featherston, please get in touch, have quite a bit on some names but still a long way to go. and its coming up the 100 years since The Great War, we lost too many men then.. photograph, back ground into the soldiers are so interesting...

Often I can put you in touch with others doing the same name, new relations for you all!

Headstone photography by emails...

If you wish to visit the area, please get in touch often show folk around the area, where the family had lived, worked, schooled.. and more graves as available.. no charge for my services either.. I may take some time to get it together, as had memory loss for two years, but seems its returning..

I am ex Londoner, loving the history of my area where decided to live, CLAREVILLE.. perhaps I know more than the locals!
