Join Simon Young as he traces the remarkable legacy of his great-great-grandfather, Samuel Henry Drew — jeweller, naturalist, and the man behind the founding collection of the Whanganui Regional Museum.

With insights from our own Pou Tiaki/Collections & Curatorial Lead Trish Nugent-Lyne, this episode of One Ancestor at a Time uncovers Drew’s enduring impact on Whanganui’s cultural identity — from Victorian science and unusual artefacts to a rare Tasmanian tiger.
