Description

"More Irish Settlers to Otago-Southland" is a supplement to the "A Register of Irish Settlers to Otago-Southland" published in 2002. The supplement contains a further 1661 new Irish settlers to Otago Southland. The vast majority of these have been obtained form the "Catholic Marriages in Otago and Southland Parishes of the Otago-Southland Diocese 1855-1996" compiled in four volumes and published in early 2004. Each record is compiled form a number of records, where available, with information taken from such as cemetery records and newspaper death notices as well as from the above-mentioned marriage registers. Most of the entries are Catholic Irish, partly because this is where the compiler's direction of research mainly lies, also because Irish Catholics have been actively researched whereas Irish nn-Catholics have not.
