The lady on the left is Morewa (Sue) Watson née Wharerau. The lady standing is Parengatai Bission née Watson. The lady sitting is my mother Nellie Waipapakura McDonald née Watson. Aunty Sue was married to George (Tarzan) Watson mums older brother, so we have two sisters and sister-in-law. The girl maybe Sandy and the baby on mums knee maybe Mason.
