Several of Karetai's whanau also became prominent figures, notably son (d. 1893), a notable tribal leader, and Timoti's daughter-in-law (1868-1945), a tireless worker for the people — both Māori and non-Māori — of Otago Peninsula. Karetai's great-granddaughter Louise Magdalene Teowaina Wallscott (1898-1999) was a notable member of the Māori Women's Welfare League.
