About Moana Hill

From board posting by C.S.

Moana Hill, born Otamatea c1890, married Jane Alice Norcross on 25 July 1916, Registrar's Office, Wanganui (Witnesses Rangi Abraham, Fordell, farm labourer, and G M Ritchie, Wanganui, Asst. Librarian). Moana's parents were Matthew Hill, engineer and Mary Anne Antony Hill. Have found a Matthew Hill, 108 Bell St, Wanganui on the Western Maori Electoral Roll for 1949-51 (Te Atihau Ngati-Pamoana) and would like to know if (or how to verify whether) this is Moana's father?

I would be grateful, also for any information about what happened to Moana and Jane after their wedding and about any descendants of Moana and Jane Hill?
