Overview
The Guard family were former residents at Kakapo Bay, Marlborough since 1833.
These objects provide evidence regarding the domestic and working lives of family members, especially their need for self-sufficiency in an isolated location, and the cultural and religious influences they experienced during their residence at the Bay for about 160 years.
