    Hi David,

    My parents, Don and Jeanette Westley, were in the Sepik from 1957-1963. I was the 1st white child born, unexpectantly in the tiny village called Bainyik. My father was a school teacher there.

    Roy and Toose Peters ran the Maprik Hotel when we were there. Don Coffey and Bruce Laws ran the trading store and the hiring of locals for the plantations and Father Mike Clerkin became a very dear friend. Other names were Bob Bunting and Stan Pegg and Don (Didiman)and Peggy Sheppard..

    The people we knew at the Malaria Control Centre (where we went to often) were Dr Syzmiczeck(who delivered me), Dr John Hancock and wife Judy, Dr Becker (T.B Specialist) and his wife Sue, Dr Schofield and his wife Lorna, Dr Peter Mooney (who delivered my brother in Wewak) and Ian Lightfoot.
    John Neitz and Tas Hammerlsey were other teachers in the area.
    Elizabeth Burchill was a nurse there at the time and there were 3 local nurses named Betty 1, 2, and 3.

    I was wondering if any of those names ring a bell to you? Love to know if they do.

    Cheers
    Vanessa Westley

    May I have a copy of your book please ,mi laik lukim tumas, as I spent a number of years in the highlands, mainly baiyer River and Mt Hagen, when I went to Baiyer in 1970 a Mr Tas Hammersly was operating a plantation in the Trauna valley off the Baiyer Valley I wonder was it the same Tas and was He one of the “E” teachers as I believe I read his name in a blog related to “E” teachers, I totally agree with the comment you can take the person out of PNG but you cant take PNG out of the person, emi stap long blut.

  26. Anthony JP Meyer said,

    Dear Mr. Wall, I would very much appreciate a copy of your book. I would also like to ask you if you (or your peers) have any information pertaining to my father Oscar Meyer who was in New Guinea in the late 30’s and subsequently in the 1956 to1962 era collecting artifacts. I deal in the early art of the South Pacific and have a special interest in the art of New Guinea. I have just found your blog and am most interested, and impressed with it ! With my thanks and best wishes…

    I served as a kiap in the Sepik from 1964 to 1978 and in the 1990s worked in Angoram and other Sepik Madang stations as a petroleum industry exploration manager. I cannot get enough of Angoram’s colourful history and characters. Would you please send me a copy of your book
