Excuse me, but my father is an elder of our Marsters family, and one of the last surviving grandson / grandchildren of William Marsters the first.

He grew up on Palmerston Island and sat with, listened to, talked with, the CHILDREN OF WILLIAM MARSTERS THE FIRST. Like his father Alfred, my mothers father Richard, your great grandfather Bill, and others.

So my father's words come direct from the children of William Marsters the first, and not from great grandchildren of William Marsters the first.

And his words are "Tata (Sarah) is the SECOND WIFE of William Marsters the first, and Tata's family is known as the MIDDLE FAMILY". This was commom knowledge when my father Ruben (grandson of William Marsters the first) lived on Palmerston Island.

I am the second daughter, in my family (Napier), and I am known as the middle child.

Kia manuia
Maryanne
