What an amazing day! Jack and I woke up to rain. We had decided to visit the cemeteries of Jane’s three sisters who stayed here in Christchurch, but like they told us before we left for New Zealand, “if you wait for good weather to do something you will never do anything.” So off we went with our raincoats.
We first went to Waimairi (pronounced, y-e-mary) Cemetery. Jack and I had visited this cemetery before thinking some ancestors could be buried there because it was close to Papanui. Elizabeth Rowntree Drake was buried here, alone. Remember her policeman husband was buried way up on the north island.
