Date Created26th January 2020CommentsNoeline Pinn I don’t think that is Jim Douglas, the teacher. He didn’t come to Kotuku until about 1944-45. He was there on my final year at primary which was 1946 and Miss Heisenbuttel was there for several years before that.

Geoffrey Bell That's interesting Noeline thanks. The Shannon/Douglas family from Kowhitirangi were close friends of my mother and some of them lived in Kotuku in the 1930s. Jim Douglas, the teacher, was from Kowhitirangi and the age would be about right for the photo. More investigation needed.

Noeline Pinn Hope I haven’t put you wrong Geoff. I didn’t know Jim Douglas was from Kowhiterangi. One of his daughters lives near a woman I know. Will see if she can shed some light on it.

Noeline Pinn Loved seeing the photos of Mollie and Katie. Mrs Mears made dancing costumes for me. Lovely ladies.
