Heather Newby - I wonder if any of them were wearing corsets... as most women did in those days.

Brenda Barry Brown - I wonder if Betty Howat was a Howat from the barber shop in Mackay St Stewie Howat Hairdresser next to Self-Help.

Margaret Singer - No. Betty Howat came from Hokitika.

Janet Sutton - I think Betty Howat was related to Archie and Colin Howat, Hokitika butchery..next door to the swimming pool (takeaway shop now)
