Baram Singh' Ark's immediate joy and happiness may have passed; loneliness and homesickness may have crept in. The misery and pain could have even brought tears to his eyes. That moment would have been short-lived as he contemplated the real meaning of what he had achieved; a new country, a future not just for him but for his wife and his three children.

Baram Singh' Ark's immediate joy and happiness may have passed; loneliness and homesickness may have crept in. The misery and pain could have even brought tears to his eyes.

The later years of his life were fruitful; his sons had grown into responsible young men, they had joined the workforce and he had been able to enjoy his freedom in the Punjab. For the last 20 years of his life he held the fort in Malpur Arkan, supporting his daughters-in-law and watching his grandchildren grow. The seed that Baram Singh Ark had sown in New Zealand came to fruition when each of the families of Chanan Singh Ark, Phuman Singh Ark and Chain Singh Ark was reunited in New Zealand. The outlook was bright and certainly blessed as the Arks' future unfolded; the second and third generation of Arks were on the verge of fulfilling a dream; they were fully charged and ready for self-employment in an industry that was to become New Zealand's biggest export sector - The New Zealand Diary Industry. Their ancestral heritage and love for the Punjab hadn't ceased; but opportunities, rewards and promises had been found elsewhere...
