As a direct descendant of Purewa, I advise this profile has numerous errors.
1. Her correct name is Purewa Emere Gilbert nee: Te Tahiwi.
2. Her mother is Maraea Hopihona.
3. Her husband is Whareahuru Gilbert.
4. The last 4 names are not siblings of Purewa.
The photo is not that of my great grandmother Purewa Emere Gilbert.
I ask the profile managers and site admin to amend as outlined.
Nga mihi, Tania Gilbert-Kennedy

Thanks for making the above changes as requested. I ask that you remove the following names as these are not her siblings - Ripeka Te Tahiwi; Nathaniel Raukawa Tahiwi; <private> Awatere (Tahiwi) and Maria Maharata Taylor.
I ask that you add as your profile pic, the photograph that I have uploaded to the media folder of my great grandmother Purewa Emere Gilbert.

Tena koorua Kimi, Jason,
Firstly thank you for correcting all errors and removing the initial fake photo.
Secondly, I do not know who either of you are, and ask therefore, that any further research of my tipuna kuia be done carefully and through.
Lastly, as a kaitiaki of the Gilbert whanau and keeper of our whakapapa, I ask to be a primary source of information for this profile. I will add further info when able.
Nga mihi, Tania Gilbert-Kennedy
