HUNDRED YEARS AGO TO-DAY
A 7ELSON CHRONOLOGY 22nd February, 1845: “By far the greater part of the cultivation is in the Waimea Plain, where most of what can be called farms are. There are two or three at Motueka and as many at Wakapuaka. The cottier farmers are principally located in the Poorman’s Valley and the German settlements of Ranzau in Waimea East: Glen-iti. Or the Wai-iti Valley, Waimea South; and the beautiful Riwaka Valley, north of Motueka.”— “Nelson Examiner,” progress report on the Nelson settlement after the third anniversary.
