**COMPLETED** with thanks POSCHICH & PEZAR - Catholic Baptisms CD

[Emrose]

Hi.  I wonder if anyone who has access to this CD would be so kind as to look for baptisms for any or all  of the family name POSCHICH in the Greymouth area.  The time I am interested in is the late 1800's.  I am also interested in the name PEZAR (could be  spelt Puzar, Pesar). 
I can only find two Poschich births in the BMD index but know there were  more children.  Thank you .

Thank you.  Yes I know there is a CD and there is a copy in the ChCh library, now closed I think due the earthquake. And since I am in Brisbane couldn't look it up there anyway.
I've written to the Catholic Church trying to buy a copy but received a reply saying sales have been suspended for the time being.
I've googled it but can't find it in Brisbane.
Have fingers crossed that someone on the list does have a copy at home.

Hi emrose,

If you have no joy here you could try the guy on this link, although its four years old his address may still be valid.

Hi Leandra
great news, does the CD cover other areas as well other than Greymouth?

Hi Althea,

Copied and pasted from the website

The Catholic Diocese of Christchurch stretches from the Conway River in North Canterbury to the Waitaki River in South Canterbury , as well as Westland and the Chatham Islands.

A purchase service is also available for baptism certificates, although with the earthquake the catholic archives will be closed for a long time I imagine.

Hello...

Here's a few NZ regional libraries that hold it. If you have no luck elsewhere ask here for a look-up from someone visiting their local library.

Click here and hope that the link works.

If it doesn't go here and search on "Catholic Diocese of Christchurch baptism index"

The State Library of Victoria has a copy too so if you know someone in Melbourne give them a call :-)

Hi Julie,

I have popped a post on a NZ genealogy site to see if anyone has a copy of the CD.
