Preferred name of “Dan”, occupation, from “Family History - Williams”, written by Lena Milne (nee Shute) b. 1893, as per copy from Robin Bruce Norman b. 1929, and added here in February 2009. Dan here is the brother of Lena’s mother, Orpha Louisa Shute (nee Williams). Lena writes:
Mother’s brother Dan had come out from Wales [guess circa 1909] and as he was a carpenter she got him to build us a cottage not far from the tea rooms and her and I lived there for a few years…we moved back to Taihape in April 1914”.
