Journalist Tina White's weekly "Memory Lane" article in the Manawatū Standard. Carol Davidson (née Jefferies) was adopted when she was a baby. Around 1995, Carol started making contact with her birth family. A 1939 picture of people sitting outside Ladies' Rest in Te Marae o Hine/The Square gave Carol Davidson the first glimpse of her birth mother Marion Emerson and aunts. In 2010, Mrs Davidson had another photo taken at the same spot with her aunts and granddaughter.
