EMERAINA PAEWAE The death occurred at Tahoraiti of Emeraine Paewae, who was well known to the Maoris of the Dannevirke district as ‘Granny Mamae’ and was believed to be the oldest Maori resident of Hawke's Bay. She was thought to be at least 100 years old, but many Maoris considered her to be 105. A well-known figure in Dannevirke until she began to suffer failing health about a year ago, ‘Granny Mamae’ will be long remembered by people in the district as a distinguished looking Maori woman of a past generation, white-haired, but erect for all her years. Her descendants are said to number several hundreds.
