Hello Lynne, welcome to the boards.

It depends on how long ago?

Lynne. the NZ BMD works on the premise re deaths that you can

a) find someone who died at least fifty years ago or more

or b) If they died more recently they have to be 80 years old or more at the time of death.

If the death is outside those parameters you can message me with name etc and I will check the microfiche at the library for you.

I would get you to put it on this thread but am going on holiday for a short while so will be done when I get back.
