Ōna Karangatanga;
Ko Taraia te maunga
Ko Tākitimu te Waka
Ko Te Wairoa te Awa
Ko Ruataniwha,
Ko Hinemihi ngā marae
Ko Ngāi Tauira te Iwi
Ko Ngāi Te Kapuamātotoru, Ko Ngāti Hinemihi
Ko Ngāti Hikatū ngā hapū
I whanau mai to matou Māmā, Kuia, Koka, Whaea hoki ki Te Āniwaniwa, i Waikaremoana, a ka whakatipuria ki roto o Te Kapu.
Kai te taha ki tona pāpā, ko Charles Thomas Chamberlain rāua ko Amy Grey ōna mātua-tīpuna.
Te taha ki tona Whaea, Ko Benjamin Mayo rāua ko Mary O’Brien ōna mātua-tīpuna.
Ko Leslie Francis Chamberlain rāua ko Doreen Mayo ōna mātua.
Ko Eru Tahuri tōna hoa pūmau, nana i mate i te tau 1970… katahi ano rāua ka piri-a-wairuatia ano…
Kei te hakui, te whaea, te taonga kua riro nei… to tatou puakohai kua ata-rere ra i runga i nga hau a maumahara… hoatu to rere , titia iho ki te Uma o Ranginui e tu ak nei, hei whetu tārake, hei pou rarama ki au uri maha e noho tonu nei ki a Papatuanuku e tiraha nei –
.. Haere ra e Mā… Ko te aunga o moe mārie ki a koe e kui…
