Abstract

Eileen May Duggan was born on 21 May 1894 in the small, South Island farming community of Tua Marina, close to the banks of the Wairau River. Some fifty years earlier, the area had been the scene of a deadly confrontation between European settlers and local Māori, but by the end of the nineteenth century it was a tranquil setting, one that well merited the name given to it by local Māori – ‘the calm beyond’.
