If anyone can point me in any direction, to help me, thanks.

Discovered my American whaler ancestor had children with a Maori woman. He was based at Kapiti.1835-1842. Her name was Nani, their son Tamati. There was a daughter too. Their descendants will carry the blue eye gene. I don't know what happened to them. I would like to find descendants of this whanau and share stories.
Perhaps #Waikato, Kawhia.
