[section]
These short forms are used for easy reference to two major sources:
Star | Hawera Star |
‘Our Own’ | A local resident recruited to provide a regular letter of local news. Standing alone, ‘Our Own’ refers to the Star's Kaponga ‘Our Own Correspondent’. |
Eltham [Manaia, &c] ‘Our Own’ | The Star's ‘Our Own Correspondent’ of the place named. |
Star (12/7/96) ‘Our Own’ (1/3/06) |
Dates thus bracketed refer to publication date. For any event &c dated in the text even these short forms of reference will be omitted—the source will be contemporary Star files, where it can easily be located. |
Farmer | New Zealand Farmer (Auckland, 1882-) |
Other abbreviations: | |
DP | Deferred payment (on land sold by the Crown). |
‘Kaupokonui’ | The bush settlements of the Kaupokonui Survey District Blocks in the 1880s (see p. 20 below). (Not today's locality of this name, east of Manaia.) |
