This the one where they are asking for transcribers?

My understanding is the couple in Wellington took the digital shots of all the passenger lists, so all the images are available but the next hard part was the indexing, so that the images were searchable.

The LDS project page is
http://indexing.familysearch.org/projects/viewProject.jsf?url=New_Zealand_Passenger_Lists_Part_2A/ProjectHelp1.html
where people can still volunteer,  ;)

Found what I was looking for here.  I had found a record in the Hocken Library but great to see the original shipping record  and to have access to it online.  Tahnks whoever is responsible.
I saw reference in earlier posts to the Brogden Recruits.  I suppose they must have recruited women as well? I might look into that a little more.

Great site. Just wondering if there's a similar thing for earlier ships?

I presume we are talking about the couple who volunteered their time over the last few years going over every inward and outward bound ship to New Zealand?

I think they're one and the same.

An old NZSG Newsletter says...

"The digitisation of all Shipping Lists held at Archives New Zealand has been carried out by (*) from Kihikihi, representatives from LDS Family Search."
