This is a database of Anglican Clergy ordained before 1930, who served in ecclesiastical province of Aotearoa New Zealand (including dioceses of Melanesia and Polynesia). Many of the clergy covered worked in other places -- England, Ireland, Canada, South Africa, USA, Australia, India, Korea, etc -- so material in the biographies is much broader than strictly New Zealand. Women deaconesses in New Zealand before 1931 are also included. It contains details of education, ordination and postings both in the Pacific and and other dioceses. There is some family information included, the aim of the compilers is to attempt to identify the parents and grandparents for each clergyman and his spouse. The work is done using the best information available for free, so in most cases primary sources are not sighted. The compilers welcome corrections and additional information from family members, which, with permission, will be included in the next update of the directory.
