Research process
We have drawn on many local resources, people and places, to assist in our research. This included local historian Michael Grieg, the Devonport Library and librarians June Swasbrook and Fiona Startup, Devonport Museum along with Committee President Alastair Fletcher, as well as our extended whanau.
John Brown from the Auckland City Council organised a Heritage Building Activity Day for the junior and middle school students, which included local archaeologist Charlotte Judge with her artefacts, and Tanya Sorrell who came with her spinning wheel.
