For the sake of being exact... if you are writing history articles or a family history.... I see the story talks about rabbit hunting BELOW the mouth.. from Tuapeka... the area may be known as 'the island'... however please do not confuse the area towards the Tuapeka Mouth as being 'Roxburgh' as The Island at Roxburgh is "up" the Clutha, north west of Tuapeka, not "down" the Clutha or south.
