Hi Ray The New Zealand Society of Genealogists ( very worth joining- their library in Panmure Auckland is awesome and they have great support groups all over the country) have all the NZ Cemetery transcriptions or you could try emailing the librarian at Manukau City Library- their website gives this email address Jbshara@manukau.govt.nz maybe that person will do a look up for you- or (if you live in New Zealand) your nearest large city library should have the cemetery transcriptions in their Social Science section or Central Research section Donna Kiwi in Canada ----- Original Message ----- From: "ray Rob" <rayrobt@hotmail.com> To: <nz-auckland-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2007 5:37 AM Subject: [NZ-AUCKLAND] Purewa Cremarorium And Mangere Lawn Cemetery ,Kirkbride Road. > Dear Fellow Listers > > I have close relatives whose bodies are buried in this cemetery( > Mangere ) > In addition I have now learned of some relatives whose ashes are buried > there , too , even though their online records indicate( to me ) Purewa as > being their final resting place .
