Is Bolton Street the one by the Botanical Gardens?
I have just returned to UK from NZ and was amazed at the wonderful information that we saw on some of the gravestones there..... even which ship some travelled on and birthplace in UK.

What a find for someone.

Wellington City Council here in New Zealand has now gone on line with its database for burials, cremations and ashes burial. You can search at 3 different cemeteries-Bolton Street 1849-1967; Karori 1891-present day and also Makara Cemetery 1965-present day. You can just search by surname and put a very loose guess at year of death & it will give you any matches to that name, in any or all of the 3 cemeteries.
Thought it might be useful to those of you who live outside to trace your rellies final resting places! Just type **wellington.govt.nz/services/cemeteries/search/search.php** to get to the right place

Good luck....Zoe
