Did your ancestor swim to New Zealand? It sometimes feels like they did. The NZSG Shipping Collection is aiming to find everything we can on every ship that came to or left New Zealand up to and including 1920, including coastal shipping around the ports of New Zealand.
The NZSG Shipping Collection will be a searchable database of passengers who travelled to, from and around New Zealand. Wherever possible, the collection of documents will be added as images for instant access to the information.
This is the biggest project ever undertaken by NZSG and will take some time to complete. We need as many hands on deck as possible.
