FreeBMD Equivalent in NZ?
« on: Monday 20 June 11 20:25 BST (UK) »
Hi

This is my first time researching my ancestors outside of the UK so I am swimming in a very large ocean of resources.

Is there a FreeBMD index equivalent for NZ records? If not please could somebody advise how I could trace the marriage of a David Poulter Child who moved from Bradford, UK to New Zealand after 1905. In 1911 he lived in Eden, Auckland.

Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Best regards
Amanda

Hi Amanda



You could try looking on the NZ Historical BDM site.

Hi Amanda,

Welcome to the NZ Board.

As you have posted on the Resources & Offers Board (easily done), I will get a Moderator to move this to the main board where it will be seen.

Cheers

Whoop, whoop.

Jericho, you're a star. There can only be one David Poulter and I was looking for a wife called Sarah.  ;D

Thank you.

Very best regards

Hi Amanda,

If you decide to order, order the printout as it is cheaper and will have more information.
