Great family that contributed so much to Inangahua and Reeftons early days. Father and son of cream collection faithfully the life of the Golden Coast butter factory at Reefton Then boys Jackie, Jimmy and brother in law Lionel Donaldson with a life of Thames TrDeds and Ford trucks. All the girls early staff for O'Malley Cronadun store then married locally contributing their efforts to the growth of Rèfton. Wonderful reminder of early pioneers of Inangahua Valley. Kevin
