« on: Thursday 28 January 10 08:26 GMT (UK) »
I live in central Christchurch and would be happy to 'pay it forward' by looking up cemetery records at the Library and taking photos where possible.  Alo happy to check out any other records with may be acessible to me.

Please contact me with as many details as possible and I'll do what I can.

Cheers.
