  • Accuracy of records

    We try to ensure the accuracy of these records, but mistakes may have occurred in the gathering of the information or in the conversion of the data into this format. The database is updated approximately every month. All the historical records and information about Dunedin’s cemeteries are stored at the Andersons Bay Cemetery and Crematorium. We can help with genealogical and grave location enquiries about any of the cemeteries from this office.

    To ensure accuracy, you can cross-reference this information with other sources, such as:
    Inscriptions on headstones
    Original burial records
    Funeral Directors’ records
    Newspaper death notices
    Electoral Rolls
    Records of transcriptions compiled by the NZ Society of Genealogists
