The Brown Family farmed just north of Waikanae from the late 1800s,
and the farm is still in the family today. This collection is
essentially in two parts – Part One consists of the very early farming
records, and Part Two is a large collection of items and archives from
Arthur James Brown (Jim), mostly military in nature.
