About TE RAU WHAANAU
This is the official Whakapapa site for the uri (descendants) of Tikipape Richard "Dick" and Mereana Te Puia "Mary"(nee Wirihana) Rau, formerly of Onewhero, Tuakau.
Tikipape is from Ngaati Tiipa, Ngaati Whaawhaakia, Ngaati Tahinga, Ngaati Kaarewa. Mereana Te Puia hails from Ngaati Korokii, Ngaati Hauaa.
They had 10 children and also brought up one "whangai" - last daughter of Tuata George and Sophia (sophie) Te Paea Rangitiaho Muru. Two of their children were "whangai" out - one to Tamati (Thomas) & Tipi Kirkwood (Tuurangawaewae), and one to Joe and Toirangi Waterhouse (Tauranganui).
In December 1992, their immediate whaanau numbers 11 children, 37 grandchildren and 27 great grandchildren. We are currently into our fifth generation issue from their union - and our whaanau numbers have approximately doubled.
