- Description
A sale plan of Rural lands for sale by ballot in the Wharepapa and Ranginui Survey districts annotated with the names of successful purchasers, 1912. Drawn by Lands and Survey Auckland for the Auckland Crown Lands Commissioner.
Base maps of rural lands open for sale or selection in terms of the Land Act, 1908, in the Wharepapa and Ranginui Survey Districts. The boundaries of farm blocks in these districts are prominently outlined, some coloured and the majority include acreages, owners' names and applicable dates handwritten in each section. Native and forest reserves, creamery and school sites, a township, possibly known as Waipari, and tracks are marked. The Mangarata, Wairakei, Punui and Te Hue Streams and the Aotearoa, Wairakei, Wharepunanga and Mangawheo Roads are named, as is the Taupo Track. Directions are given to several settlements including Wharepuhanga, Otorohanga, Tautori and Taumarunui. Some sections include Gazetteer numbers. Includes trig points and relief is shown. Three cuttings relating to the Wharepapa Survey District, Otorohanga County and one cutting related to discharged soldiers in Wharepapa Survey District, West Taupo County are all mounted adjacent to the map. Each cutting has handwritten information including the poster number, dates and 3rd. class which refers to the quality of the land.
The base map is of farm sections in the Wharepapa and Ranginui survey districts, Auckland Land District No. 1114. A schedule of these districts include the valuations, acreages and rent. Instructions to applicants and a caution follow with the printed name of H.M. Skeet, Commissioner of Crown Lands. Includes an abstract of conditions of purchase. A statement on the left side of the map begins with '22,153 acres'. Includes the application date of 25 March 1912 at the District Lands and Survey Office, Auckland. Includes references to 'native owners'. The map on the reverse has a reference key about preferences to landless applicants, for the variously coloured sections.
The inset map is a locality plan of the area from the Bream Tail to Napier.
