Search is on for family to reunite with family tree
Updated at 4:22 pm on 22 August 2012
Staff at Auckland Libraries are trying to find the owner of a 500-year-old family tree.
The genealogical record of the Jennings family found 43 years ago in the attic of a Waiheke Island house has been preserved and restored by the library service.
The intricate family tree on large poster-sized paper details the history of David Jennings, who emigrated from England to Nelson in 1849.
Auckland Libraries wants to reunite the tree with its creator or a descendant.
