PARISH REGISTERS IN NEW ZEALAND: A List of Originals, Transcripts Microforms & Indexes of New Zealand Parish Registers, by Bruce Le Grange GARNER, published November 2000. A survey of parish registers in New Zealand has not been published until this listing was completed. This edition lists more than 1,000 entries and the records of more than 15 religious denominations. These are vital records because civil registration by law of births did not start until 1848, whereas church records of baptisms began as early as 1815. Registration of European marriages commenced in 1854. Maori marriages commenced in 1911. Registrations of births did not begin until 1913, so the church register record will often be the only one that exists. Available (posted airmail worldwide) in hardcopy edition (First edition of 100 copies only) $20 AUD or microfiche $9.90 AUD (Mastercard, Visa, Bankard or checque with order) from Bruce L. Garner, P.
