A HISTORY OF NGĀTI TAMA Section 2
The origins of Ngāti Tama, according to tribal traditions, date back to the ancestors Tamaariki (Poutamaariki) and Rākeiora of the Tokomaru Waka. The whakapapa of these rangatira, their journey and eventual settlement in northern Taranaki are preserved in many oral histories and tribal traditions.
The intermarriages between prominent Ngāti Tama families and other tribal communities in Taranaki and the southern coastal areas of Waikato, forged close ties and strategic alliances in the central and Northern Taranaki region.
Around 1820, an alliance between the Taranaki and Tainui tribes, including Ngāti Tama, under Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi, participated in a raid to Te Ūpoko o Te Ika (the southern part of the North Island). By the mid1820s these tribes had established themselves at Kāpiti Island and the southern part of the North Island through to Cook Strait/Raukawa Moana. Relationships with the whalers were based on trade, service provision and marriage.
Eventually, the Taranaki and Tainui alliance crossed the Cook Strait to Te Tauihu o te Waka a Māui (the Top of the South Island). Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi, other Ngāti Tama leaders, and rangatira from other Iwi led the conquest into Te Tauihu throughout the Marlborough Sounds, Wairau and across to Tasman Bay and Golden Bay. Key settlements and communities were then established for ongoing permanent settlement.
Ngāti Tama established many pā and kāinga at several localities in Te Tauihu and at some places in northern Te Tai Poutini (the west coast of the South Island). The main pā of Ngāti Tama were at Wakapuaka, Puketūtū (Motueka), Wainui, Waimeha, Tākaka, Tukurua and Parapara.
Throughout this resource we introduce prominent Ngāti Tama tūpuna (ancestors) and their connection to Wakapuaka. The relationships between these tūpuna and their aliases are shown in this geneology.

Treaty of Waitangi
tr
Around 1840, the New Zealand Company, settlers, and British laws arrived in Te Tauihu. This resulted in many Māori losing their lands due to illegal land purchases by the Company officials.
In the early 2000s, Ngāti Tama lodged their historic grievance claims with the Waitangi Tribunal. In 2013 Ngāti Tama settled with the Crown and were able to reclaim some of what was lost. While the Crown’s acknowledgements and apology in the settlement are important, they do not remove the pain and suffering that Ngāti Tama whānau endured after being alienated from their lands and homes.

1 Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi was born at Poutama in North Taranaki, the eldest son of Whangataki II and Hinewairoro, and brother to Te Taku and Te Rangitakaroro. He grew to be a strong and strategic rangatira of Ngāti Tama.
2 Te Pūoho became paramount chief of Ngāti Tama after his predecessor Raparapa was killed in a battle at Kāwhia.
3 Te Pūoho had several wives. One of the prominent marriages occurred after the death of his brother (Te Taku) who died in battle, when he cemented a union with his widow (Kauhoe) and son (Paremata).
4 Te Pūoho, was a prominent war leader who participated in many tribal conflicts. This ultimately led him to lead a large group of whānau south to the Kāpiti Coast and Wellington in the 1820s and 1830s.
5 Not long after their arrival into the Kāpiti and Wellington areas, Te Pūoho with Paremata led their own tauā (war party) across the Raukawa Moana (Cook Strait) into Te Tauihu. This tāua went to avenge the death of Te Pēhi a close relative, who was killed at Kaiapoi.
As Te Pūoho traversed the lands, the tradition of laying stake to his claims was replicated throughout the areas of:

12 In 1836, Te Pūoho led his final tauā south to Tūtūrau where he was killed in battle alongside many of the men, women and children supporting the war party.
14 Paremata survived the battle due to Taiaroa, the Ngāi Tahu rangatira, who protected him with his cloak. This act of reciprocity was due to a previous encounter where Te Pūoho and Paremata spared his life. Unfortunately, Taiaroa was unable to do the same for Te Pūoho.

TE IKA-A-MĀUI NORTH ISLAND TARANAKI KĀWHIA KAIAPOI TŪTŪRAUWĪ KĀTENE TE PŪOHO Section 4
Wī Kātene Te Pūoho was born around 1815. His parents were Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi, the paramount chief of Ngāti Tama, and Kauhoe of Te Ātiawa. He was also known as Wīremu Kātene, Te Manu and E Manu. Wī Kātene became the chief at Wakapuaka which was the closest Māori settlement to Nelson at the time.
Wī Kātene and his wife, Wikitōria Te Amohau, daughter of Hēnare Te Keha of Te Ātiawa at Golden Bay, were baptised as Anglican in January 1844. They were given the baptismal names of William Cotton (Wī Kātene) and Victoria Cotton (Wikitōria Kātene). Their daughter, Ngāhota Ngārongoā, was baptised Julia on the same day. Julia, later known as Hūria Mātenga, famously helped rescue the crew of the Delaware when it was driven aground on the rocks at Wakapuaka in 1863.
Wī Kātene established a long and respectful relationship with the New Zealand Company, settlers, and Crown officials. He first met Captain Aruther Wakefield in 1841 at Astrolabe when travelling by waka to Golden Bay. Wakefield was there negotiating for the settlement of Nelson and was distributing gifts to each of the chiefs.
Wī Kātene was known as a man of peace and as a great rangatira who led his own whānau and the wider Ngāti Tama tribe spread across Motueka and Golden Bay. He was successful in traversing both his own traditional world and the new society brought by European settlement.
He looked after his people and was tenacious in not giving up land to the Crown, especially at Wakapuaka which was the main base for Ngāti Tama. He maintained that the Wakapuaka block was the minimal holding for his people’s subsistence. One witness said that the people lived in friendly relationships at Wakapuaka, perhaps because they ‘scented the fragrance of Wī Kātene’.
Wī Kātene died in 1880.
Te Manu Reserve
It is said that Te Pūoho ki te Rangi was given the name Te Manu (the bird) by his enemies on account of his eloquence and melodious voice. A name that was also given to Wī Kātene.
On 31 March 1842, Nelson’s street naming committee approved the name Te Manu for what is now known as Emano Street. Wī Kātene was the only living chief to be recognised in this wa In 1842, the street naming committee recorded the name as E Manu. For reasons unknown, E Manu was altered at some stage to Emano, a name that has stuck for well over a century.
The correction of the name was prompted by local residents who requested that the informally named Emano East Reserve be retained as public land and appropriately renamed.
It is fitting that Te Manu Reserve survives today as public land because of local leadership and perseverance. a

Born in the early 1840s at Wakapuaka and named Ngārongoā Kātene at birth, she was also known as Ngā Hota. Upon being christened, she became more commonly known as Hūria Mātenga (Julia Martin).
Ngārongoā was of Ariki Kāhu Tātara lineage that could be traced back to the Tokomaru and Tainui tribes including Te Ātiawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira.
Her grandparents were Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi and Kauhoe. Her father was Wī Kātene Te Pūoho, who was the chief at Wakapuaka. Her mother was Wikitōria Te Amohau, the daughter of Hēnare Tātana Te Keha, chief of Te Ātiawa in Mohua.
An Arranged Marriage
Strategic takawaenga marriages were arranged to halt the possible outbreak of war. They were between two people of status and always with the approval of both tribes.
In 1858, at the age of 16, Ngārongoā entered an arranged marriage with Hēmi Mātenga who had ancestral links to Te Ātiawa and and Ngāti Toa Rangatira in Waikanae. Ngārongoā and Hēmi were married to maintain these genealogical links for future generations.
As Ngārongoā was unable to bear children, to ensure their union and bloodline relationships continued, it was agreed that Hēmi father a child with her cousin Ngāwaina and Mamae was born soon after. Ngāwaina was the daughter of Paremata and Ngāmīanga.
Ngārongoā and Hēmi raised Mamae as their own in Wakapuaka.
Ngārongoā the granddaughter of the Ngāti Tama chief Te Pūoho, attracted the most attention, and a public subscription raised enough to buy her a gold watch. Each of the rescuers received £50 (nearly $6,000 in 2020 terms).

Young, beautifulDelaware Bay Shipwreck
Ngārongoā and Hēmi, along with Hōhapata Hurumutu, Eraia and Kerei gained national prominence in 1863.
On the night of September 4, 1863, the newly built brig Delaware ran into a storm and was thrown onto the rocks at the foot of the cliffs at Wakapuaka. Ngārongoā was in her early 20s when the shipwreck occurred and she, along with Hēmi, Hōhapata, Eraia and Kerei, came to the aid of the crew. Through their efforts, eight of the crew and a passenger safely reached the shore with the only casualty being the Chief Mate.
At a ceremony supervised by the Superintendent of Nelson, the rescuers were praised for their kindness and help during the shipwreck, pointing out that without the aid of Ngārongoā and her whanaunga, they would have all but perished.
Ngārongoā received an inscribed gold watch for her efforts, along with 50 pounds. Hēmi and Hōhāpata also received 50 pounds and silver watches. Eraia and Kerei received ten pounds. Although these gifts were presented as koha for the group’s valiant efforts at Delaware Bay, they were in fact payment for Ngāti Tama lands previously committed to settlers for occupation.
Ngārongoā had gardens at Tūrakiwaru and Tuarāwhāiti, and was often seen swimming in the estuary on her way to tend to her gardens. Ngārongoā maintained her leadership at Wakapuaka right up until her death in 1909. Her funeral was attended by more than 2,000 people. Both Māori and Pākehā from all over Aotearoa came to farewell a woman of courage, strength and great beauty.

ANCESTRAL LANDS
Section 6
Wakapuaka are the ancestral lands of Ngāti Tama and whānau connected to the Hūria Mātenga Trust and the Wakapuaka 1B Trust.
While Wakapuaka is the most well-known name for the area, there are other known versions which include Whakapuaka, Whakapouanga, and Whakapouaka (in the Ngāi Tahu dialect). Given the variations, it is difficult to infer its true original meaning.
The area includes:
• restricted sites
• ancient fortifications
• food harvesting areas and cultivations
• medicinal gathering areas
• communal villages
• burial sites

A Taiāpure is a type of reservation that acknowledges that Māori, as tangata whenua, are entitled to have rangatiratanga over their fisheries (amongst other natural resources), as guaranteed by Article II of the Treaty of Waitangi.
The Wakapuaka Taiāpure at Delaware Bay, east of Nelson, covers an area from Ataata Point to Whangamoa Head, including Cable Bay and Pepin Island.
The Taiāpure was proposed by Ngāti Tama in 1997 and approved by the Government in 2002.
The Trust’s objectives for the area include managing its fisheries conservatively so that fish stocks recover, especially pāua, lobster, flounder, snapper, kina, oysters and scallops.
Led by Ngāti Tama, a management committee encompassing Māori, the local community, recreational and commercial fishing interest groups, and environmental interests is in place. The committee will be able to recommend regulations for the conservation and management of the fisheries resources in the Taiāpure fishery.

Wakapuaka Estuary
Te Parumoana o Wakapuaka, otherwise known as the Wakapuaka Estuary or Delaware Bay Estuary, is located in the lower reaches of the Wakapuaka River and is bounded by Māhēipuku and Rotokura.
Since the conquest of Wakapuaka in the early 1820s, Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi took possession of the whenua and surrounding area including the estuary, which was then passed down to his granddaughter Ngārongoā and eventually to the current Wakapuaka whānau.
The estuary holds significant historical, spiritual and cultural values for Ngāti Tama. The conservation of the estuary is centred around preserving and protecting the biological and ecological benefits to areas including;
• Restricted sites
• Archaeological sites
• Cultivations and harvesting sites
• Medicinal gathering sites
• Conservation areas
• Fish stock nursey habitats
• Nesting places
• Recreational purposes
• Marine reserve, seafood harvesting sites
WAKAPUAKA AWA/RIVER Section 8
The Wakapuaka River has good biodiversity. The river flows from its headwaters in the Whangamoa and is joined by various tributaries, which then carves its path through Paremata Flats, into Te Pūaha o Wakapuaka and out into Delaware Bay.
There are 33 nationally threatened and at-risk species identified in the terrestrial coastal zone,
and at least 12 species of threatened migratory fish or marine mammals in Nelson’s maritime environment which includes Delaware Bay. There are currently five native fish species of significance in the Wakapuaka catchment which include the giant kōkopu, longfin eel, kōaro, whitebait and lamprey eel.

Inspiring kaitiaki
For Ngāti Tama, when it comes to looking after our rivers, our responsibility extends from the head waters in the hills and mountains to the outlets at the sea – Mai i uta, ki tai. Our rivers are interconnected with the land and activities that take place within the catchments. Our objective is to teach tamariki how to be good kaitiaki of these environments to ensure knowledge and understanding is passed on to future generations. The photos above show our tamariki studying the health and ecosystem of the river.
VALUING WATER
Ngāti Tama values of wai
Ngāti Tama, as kaitiaki of Wakapuaka, place high value on the waterways that sustain the land and all that lives on it. The following statements highlight the importance of wai (water) to Ngāti Tama and our approach to protecting our waterways for future generations.
WHAKAPAPA OF WAI is important and integral to understanding the value of water.
KAITIAKI
there is a responsibility to ensure wai is respected, protected and maintained for now and future generations.
MAURI
is the essence of life, therefore ensuring our natural resources enhance the health and wellbeing of our whānau.
TIKANGA AND KAWA will guide the management of how to look after our natural resources.
ATUA AND TAONGA SPECIES Section 10
Tāne Mahuta
Tāne Mahuta is the god of the forest and all that lives within it, especially the birds. He is very important in Māori mythology.
He is also known as Tāne, Tāne-nui-a-Rangi and many other names. Tāne is one of the sons of Papatūānuku and Ranginui.
Haumia Tiketike
Haumia Tiketike is the god of wild and uncultivated food, especially fern fronds and bracken fern and its edible root, aruhe.
Among other creatures, many insects are said to have descended from him.
He is one of the sons of Papatūānuku and Ranginui. He is sometimes referred to as Haumia, Haumie or Haumia Tikitiki.
His brother (Rongomātāne), with whom he is closely associated, is the guardian of cultivated plants such as kūmara, taro and yams.
bursting into life
Kawakawa
Is one of the most important healing herbs in Rongoā Māori (traditional herbal medicine).
The leaves, simply chewed or made into infusions, are widely used as treatments for stomach pains and indigestion. Kawakawa is also used as a tonic and tea due to its refreshing and sustaining properties.
Topically, kawakawa leaf applications are also used for bruises and rheumatism, the pain of neuralgia and nettle stings, as well as for eczema.
Korimako
Hot kawakawa infusions and decoctions have long been a popular treatment for winter ailments.
Mātātā Kōtare
Kererū Tūī WAKAPUAKATangaroa
Tangaroa is the Māori god of the sea. He is also the god of all creatures that live there. He is one of the many sons of Papatūānuku and Ranginui.
Fish
Aotearoa’s streams, lakes, rivers and wetlands support around 54 species of native fish including galaxiids, bullies, eels, lamprey, black flounder, torrentfish, smelt and mullet – and these are just the ones we know of that have been identified and classified!
The five native species that can be found in the Wakapuaka catchment are giant kōkopu, longfin tuna, kōaro, īnanga and piharau (lamprey eel) with upland bully the most common
Lamprey
Eel
like eels but are more closely related to sharks and rays.
Karepō
Eelgrass
Karepō is the only flowering plant that is totally submerged at every tide. It is an ecologically important species forming critical habitat and foraging areas for fish and invertebrates (juvenile flounder, crabs and cockles).
Matuku
Tōrea
Karoro
Kawau
Eel
Eels migrate up streams as elvers to find suitable adult habitat. After many years they return to the sea to breed and die.
Kōaro
Kōaro are excellent climbers and like clear, swiftly flowing, forested streams.
Īnanga
Īnanga are the most common and smallest of the whitebait species. They begin life as eggs laid in vegetation beside streams.
Bullies
There are seven species of bullies in New Zealand. They are found in a range of habitats including streams, rivers and lakes. Bullies are well camouflaged against sand and rocks, but can be seen darting in the shallows during the day.
Giant Kōkopu
The giant kōkopu is the largest of the whitebait species, reaching a size of 300-500 mm.

HE KŌRERO HĪTŌRIA O NGĀTI TAMA
Wāhanga 2
I ahu mai a Ngāti Tama i Hawaiki rā anō i te waka o Tokomaru. E ai ki ētehi kōrero, i takea mai te ingoa o te iwi i a Tamaariki, tētehi o ngā rangatira tokorima, nā rātou te waka i hautū. Kei ngā kōrero tuku iho, te whakapapa, te whakawhitinga mai, ā tae noa mai ki te tatūnga atu ki Taranaki mārakiraki. Nā ngā hononga ki ngā kāwai rangatira o Taranaki whānui me ngā iwi o Tainui, i tino ū ai ēnei rōpū.
Nō te takiwā o te tau 1820, ka whakatūria tētehi haumi i waenganui i ngā iwi o Taranaki me Waikato. Ka kuhu atu a Ngāti Tama, i raro i te mana o Te Pūoho ki te Rangi, i tētehi whakaekenga ki Te Ūpoko o Te Ika. Tae rawa ake ki waenganui i te tekau tau 1820, kua nōhia ngā iwi nei ki Kāpiti tae atu ki Te Moana Raukawakawa. Mā te tauhokohoko, te whakarato ratonga me ngā mārentanga e hono tahi ai ngā iwi ki ngā kaipatu tohorā.
Nāwai rā, ka whakawhiti tēnei haumi ki Te Tauihu o Te Waka a-Māui. Nā Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi rātou ko ētehi atu rangatira o Ngāti Tama me ngā iwi te take raupatu i kōkiri ki te taha rāwhiti o Te Waipounamu. Ka whakatūria e ngā whānau me ngā hapū he papakāinga ki Waikawa, ki Te Wairau me Kēkerengū, tae atu ki Kaiapoi.
Ka mutu, kua pūmau te noho a ngā iwi o Tainui me Taranaki puta noa i Te Tauihu.
Ka whakatūria e Ngāti Tama ōna pā me ngā kāinga puta noa i Te Tauihu me Te Tai Poutini. Ko ngā pā matua i whakatūria ki Wakapuaka, ki Puketūtū, ki Wainui, ki Tākaka, ki Tukurua me Parapara.
I roto i tēnei rauemi, ko ngā tūpuna matua o Ngāti Tama me ō rātou hononga ki Wakapuaka. Ko te whanaungatanga anō hoki i waenganui i a rātou me ō rātou ingoa ake e whakaatungia ana.

Te Tiriti o Waitangi
I te takiwā o te tau 1840, i tae mai te Kamupene o Aotearoa, ko ngā manene me ngā ture o Ingarangi ki Te Tauihu. Ko te mutunga iho, ka riro te whenua o ngā Māori i ngā mahi māminga a ngā āpiha o te Kamupene.
Tae atu ki ngā tau 2000, ka tukuna atu e Ngāti Tama ōna kokoraho ki Te Rōpū Whakamana i Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Nō te tau 2013, ka oti i a Ngāti Tama ōna kokoraho te whakatau ki te Karauna me te whiwhi anō i ētehi o ngā mea i riro atu. Ahakoa he mea nui ngā whakamiha me te whakapāha a te Karauna, kāore tonu i ea ai te mamae me ngā toimahatanga i pā mai ki ngā whānau o Ngāti Tama, i a rātou e noho kōpā ana i ō rātou whenua me ō rātou kāinga.

TE PŪOHO KI TE RANGI
Wāhanga 3
1 I whānau mai a Te Pūoho Ki Te Rangi i Poutama i Taranaki mārakiraki. Ko ia te tama mātāmua o Whangataki II rāua ko Hinewairoro me te tuakana o Te Taku rāua ko Te Rangitakaroro. Ka tupu a ia kia pakari, hei rangatira mō Ngāti Tama.
2 Nō te matenga o Raparapa i te pakanga ki Kāwhia, ka tū a Te Pūoho hei rangatira mō Ngāti Tama.
3 Nō te matenga o tōna tuakana a Te Taku i te pakanga, ka riro i a Te Pūoho tōna pouaru a Kauhoe me tā rāua tama a Paremata.
4 He toa pakanga a Te Pūoho, ā, i uru atu ki roto i ngā pakanga ā-iwi maha nei. Ko te mutunga iho, nāna tētehi ope nui i ārahi ki Kāpiti i te tonga, ki Te Whanganui a-Tara i ngā tau 1820-1830.
5 Kāore i roa i muri mai, i te taenga atu ki te takiwā o Kāpiti me Te Whanganui a-Tara, nā Te Pūoho rāua ko Paremata tētehi tauā i whakawhiti atu i te Moana Raukawakawa ki Te Tauihu. Ko te take, ki te ngaki i te matenga o Te Pēhi Kupe. He whanaunga tata nōna, i mate i Kaiapoi.

Ka ora tonu a Paremata i te korowai o Taiaroa, he rangatira nō Ngāi Tahu. He tauutuutu nōna. Nā Paremata a ia i ora ai ki Kaiapoi engari a Te Pūoho, e kore e taea.

WĪ KĀTENE TE PŪOHO Wāhanga 4
I whānau mai a Wī Kātene Te Pūoho i te takiwā o te tau 1815. Ko ōna mātua ko Te Pūoho ki Te Rangi rāua ko Kauhoe nō Te Ātiawa. He ingoa anō ōna, ko Wīremu Kātene, ko Te Manu me E Manu. Ko Wī Kātene te rangatira i Wakapuaka, ko te papakāinga tata ake ki Whakatū i taua wā.
Wī Kātene rāua ko tana hoa rangatira a Wikitōria Te Amohau, tamāhine o Hēnare Te Keha o Te Ātiawa ki Mohua, i iriiritia ai hei mihingare i Kohitātea i te tau 1844. Ka tapaina rāua ki ngā ingoa karaitiana ko William Cotton rāua ko Victoria Cotton. Ka iriiritia hoki i taua rā tonu, tā rāua tamāhine a Ngāhota Ngārongoā ki a Julia. Nō muri mai, ka mōhiotia whānuitia hei Hūria Mātenga, mō āna mahi whakaora i ngā kaumoana o te kaipuke Delaware i pae ki uta ki ngā toka i Wakapuaka i te tau 1863.
Kua roa nei a Wī Kātene e whakaute ana ki te Kamupene o Aotearoa, ngā manene me ngā āpiha o te karauna. I tūtaki tuatahi atu ki a Kāpene Arthur Wakefiled i te tau 1841, i Astrolabe, i a ia e haere ana ki Mohua mā runga waka. Ko tā Wakefield mahi, ko whiriwhiri i te whakataunga o ngā whenua ki Whakatū me te tuku koha ki ngā rangatira.
He tangata mau ki te rangimārie a Wī Kātene, nāna tōna whānau me Ngāti Tama i ārahi mai i Motueka tae atu ki Mohua. He kaha nōna ki te whakawhiti i
Te Manu Whenua Tāpui
E ai ki ngā kōrero, nā ngā hoariri o Te Pūoho ki te Rangi te ingoa Te Manu i tapaina ai ki runga i a ia, nā tōna reo rōreka. Nā Wī Kātene anō hoki taua ingoa.
I te 31 o Poutū te-rangi i te tau 1842, nā te kōmiti tapa ingoa tiriti ki Whakatū, i whakaae ki te ingoa Te Manu, i ēnei rā ko te Tiriti o Emano. Ko Wī Kātene anahe te rangatira e ora ana e whakanui pēnei ana.
I te tau 1842, nā taua kōmiti i panoni ki te ingoa E Manu. Nō te takanga o te wā, ka panoni mai i E Manu ki te ingoa Emano, kua neke atu i te kotahi rau tau te roa. Nā ngā kainoho hapori te kaupapa i kōkiri kia purutia te whenua Emano mō te marea, kia whakatikaina hoki te ingoa.
E tika ana, kia tū te whenua hei tohu maharatanga ki a Te Manu, nā te kaha me te māia o te marea.
Kua roa nei a Wī Kātene e whakaute ana ki te Kamupene o Aotearoa, ngā manene me ngā āpiha o te karauna.

NGĀRONGOĀ KĀTENE Wāhanga 5
I whānau mai i te takiwā o te tau 1840 ki Wakapuaka. I tapaina ki te ingoa Ngārongoā Kātene engari ko Ngā Hota anō tētehi ingoa ōna. Nō tōna iriiringa, ka mōhiotia ki a Hūria Mātenga.
Nō ngā kāwai Ariki Kāhu Tātara a Ngārongoā i heke mai i ngā waka o Tokomaru me Tainui me ngā iwi o Te Āti Awa, o Ngāti Tama, o Ngāti Toa Rangatira anō hoki.

Nō te tau 1858, tekau mā ono te pahake, ka moe taumau a Ngārongoā ki a Hēmi Mātenga me ōna hononga ki ngā iwi o Te Ātiawa me Whakarongotai. Ka moetahi a Ngārongoā ki a Hēmi kia mau tonu ai ngā hononga a-whakapapa ā, haere ake nei.
Nā te korenga ōna ki te whakawhānau tamariki mai, i whakaae a Ngārongoā kia moe a Hēmi ki tana whanaunga ki a Ngāwaina kia whai uri ai. Ko Ngāwaina te tamāhine a Paremata rāua ko Ngāmīanga.
Nā Ngārongoā rāua ko Hēmi a Mamae i whakatupu i Wakapuaka hei tamāhine mā rāua.

Te Paenga ki Te Whanga o Delaware
I te tau 1863, i rongonui whānuitia ai a Ngārongoā rātou ko Hēmi, ko Hōhapata Hurumutu, ko Eraia, ko Kerei.
I te pō o te 4 o Mahuru i te tau 1863, i tūpono atu te kaipuke hou ko te Delaware ki te āwhā, ā ka pae ki uta, ki ngā toka i te take o ngā pari ki Wakapuaka. Nō ōna tau rua tekau te pahake o Ngārongoā i te paenga mai o te kaipuke, i tae atu ai rātou ko Hēmi, ko Hōhapata, ko Eraia, ko Kerei, ki te āwhina i ngā kaumoana. Nā ā rātou mahi, tokowaru ngā kaumoana me tētehi tangata kē atu i tae ki uta. Kotahi anahe te tangata i mate.
