You are true to both your New Zealand and your Celtic origins for your love of poetry! I have some relatives living in New Zealand, but I am not in touch with them but wonder if they have done their family history and discovered this website. I too look at a grave, it's in Yorkshire, stating that my great-great grandparents were born in Coleford and this demonstrates to me that they were proud of coming from the Forest of Dean and would rather have stayed there than move away. Though I also know this for a fact as The Forest of Dean, Monmouth and Coleford became almost legendry in the family as the place where things were lovely e.g. salmon leaping in the River Wye.
