There are twenty-eight parts to this volume as the 1,450 documents reproduced here amount to over 14,000 pages. These 28 parts collectively comprise the companion volume to The Hauraki Tribal Lands, Parts 1-4 by David Alexander. This volume contains all the reference material necessary to support that report.
The reproduction quality of some plans and deeds is at a lower standard than would normally have been expected. This is because reproduction at the A4 size contained in this part of the volume is a reduction from the much larger size of the original document. Also the general condition of the original document may have deteriorated over the years : ink or pencil lines have faded; pages have been ripped, torn or are missing, and in some instances they have been damaged by water, fire, mildew or insects. The detailed references which are provided enable the reader to check the original source document.
The index to all supporting papers is set out in the preliminary pages found at the beginning of each part of this volume. A user guide is also provided.
