She was housekeeper for Mr & Mrs Ross at Waitahuna and subsequently housekeeper for Mr Archie Moffatt at Raes Junction and later Waitahuna for many years. Elizabeth gave her mother her first sewing machine. Elizabeth died in Waitahuna in 1933 and was buried in Waitahuna Cemetery. OBITUARY MISS ELIZABETH REDPATH By the death of Miss Elizabeth Redpath at her residence, Waitahuna, last week, the district lost one who was highly respected by all who knew her.
