Welcome to the NZ board.
If you find references to records of interest that have not been digitized, but are held at the Auckland or Wellington branch, of the National Archives, it may be possible to find a local resident [RC member] who is prepared to research, and photograph such record for you, while there on their own research.
When able, some of us are prepared to do that for free. Our way of paying it forward for the help we in turn have received over the years.
Alan.
