Im related to a famous french war General last name Pompay who married one of my ancestors in NgaPuhi tribe who had kids then the last name varied to mine.
My dads mothers side came from Ngati Mutunga iwi(taranaki) then migrated up to ngati Kahu and died their.
Because the Maori youth were committing a majority of the crimes, comming to speak of this on of my cousins robbed a bank in dargiville and was shot dead by the armed defenders because he didnt put the gun down about 6 years ago, I have an article from it somewhere. A group of Maori teens murdered a guy walking home from the pub stuff like that. And there are some europeans who are in youth gang prevention programes funded by you know who.Any reason they didnt want to look after troubled Indian, or white youth? After all a lot of the funding they receive is from the 'white mans' taxes
Then give 7grand to one of your sons, go on by next week, he's not an idiot either is he?7 grans is cheap - and I wouldnt give it to you because I think you are a idiot.

Can't have been this one - he's Italian

This one's geographically closer - he's Australian

I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!
But not before the Egyptians did.
the Ptolemaic Greeks
This (image above) is the famous Ptolemy map of the world, as known by the Greeks two hundred years before the birth of Christ.
It was produced by Claudius Ptolemaeus, or Ptolemy, in 151 AD. If you look at the schematic beneath, the land mass marked Taprobana is not Ceylon as previously suggested - it's Australia ! Tasmania is even included.
As that is Australia, then the 2 islands named Bona Fortuna (boxed in red) look like - and would be - New Zealand.

hmmm It could be brigidare general elliot pompey, not sure on that one though, I do know I am related to some general. Its just that with elliot pompey isnt his last name it was a nickname but my last name is a Maori variation with pompey, im fairly sure the person was french. I got to ask my pops tonight.
I'm sure theres plenty of people related to famous french generals around tho... Personally i dont believe history is relevant when judging how much anyone "deserves" anything. My parents were never "entitled" to land, they worked damn hard for it. As will I when the time comes.
But back on topic, Waitangi Day generally tends to be good beach weather, so if your local beach is still Public then go for it
And bring BBQ and cold cold beer![]()
