They make excellent (and postable) Christmas presents for Palmerston North residents past and present, but particular articles may resonate with those who have an interest in the railway in Palmerston North, or with nursing history, or with the social history of Ashhurst. Did you know that 100 trains a day passed through the inner city in the 1920s making it a hazard for pedestrians and vehicles – not to mention the perils of the railway as a workplace? The memories of nurse-midwife Una Walker tell us about Palmerston North Hospital as a training place, and also the experiences of mothers and babies at various local maternity homes. Graves at Ashhurst cemetery illuminate the lives of the famous and obscure buried there, while other articles tell us about race relations in the Manawatū in the 1830s, about support systems for another generation of migrants in the 1970s, and about the early history of the old house at Te Manawa Museum.
The journal is a voluntary effort by local historians who would be very grateful for your support!
It can be ordered by emailing manawatujournalsales@inspire.net.nz giving your name and address, including post code.
Payment of $25 per copy should be made at time of order to ANZ 06 0729-0511593-00, with your name as reference.

The couple have lived in their large, sunny serviced apartment for four years now and still can’t quite believe what a good score it was.
“It was the best thing we’ve done,” says June. “It’s north facing, so it gets lots of light, and it’s a good size, so I’ve got room for my card-making supplies.”
