Though my name is on this page as a manager - I do not agree with this Whakapapa stating Hotuawhio as father of Hotumatapu. Below is the direct ancestry I had originally uploaded on geni.com from Hoturoa:
Hoturoa
Hotuope
Hotumatapu
Motai
This ancestry was sourced from many different, publicly accepted and known Whakapapa and knowledgeable Kaumatua, over a 40 year period. People have added to it or changed it on geni.com over time, so it is no longer true to the information uploaded by myself as above.
Hotumatapu is our 23rd great grandfather. We descend of Ngati Raukawa, Our family Whakapapa being:
Hoturoa
Hotuope
Hotumatapu
Motai
Ue-raka
Rakamaomao
Kakati
Tuhianga
Poutama
Mango
Kaihamu
Tuteurutira
Tupahau
Korokino
Toa Rangatira
Marangaiparoa
Kimihia
Paretona II
Kahumahinga
This discussion is to notify others that naming Hotuawhio as the father of Hotumatapu is not of my doing. Refer to my Whakapapa above.
