Default NZ Wills Online

These wills are being digitised and put on familysearch to view for free.

I'm not sure if the project is complete yet but I did find the will I was looking for.

Sorry, I posted quickly before I went to bed.


Kate posted the link I had. In case anything happens to it, I googled NZ wills and whichever Govt body looks after them has a link to familysearch.

A number of wills (and other information) are available on the Archway site, which is also free

Thanks so much for this - three of my lot were Early Settlers who had large families &

many of them appear here. Very useful.
