HISTORY
Old Opiki Swing/Suspension Bridge
Members of the Alve family lived adjacent the old Opiki Swing Bridge over the Manawatu River throughout the 2oth Century. We are well acquainted with this region and the history of the people who populated it in southern Manawatu and northern Horowhenua. Our family interacted with many locally. We also have knowledge about early families 1876-1900 who settled in the Waiarapa where the original Alves lived.

PUBLICATIONS
Gutenberg - Adelaide Slipway 1867
The ship Endeavour was renamed Gutenberg soon after it was inspected and serviced at the new Dunnikier slipway in Adelaide during 1867. The Gutenberg made two trips to New Zealand. The second, to Wellington carried the Alve family and 165 European emigrants who are the subject of the study Bremerhaven to Wellington. We are available to chat about this or other of the Vogel of immigrant ships 1870-1876.
