Notes

Every family has its own history story to preserve and retell to new generations. Put these stories together with your neighbours' and you build the story of the community.
Here Jacueline Elliot (nee Buckley), a fourth generation Raumati Souther of Eatwell descent, presents the history of the founding families of Raumati South.
By opening this window into the ways of the past: caring, sharing resources, being self-sufficient, being responsible for your neighbour, and the lost art of play - Jacqueline found more than a few valuable lessons for the future.
