New Zealand Completed Requests / Stewart Island miner's rights registers
« on: Thursday 06 August 09 03:06 BST (UK) »
I'd like to find out whether miner's rights registers exist for Stewart Island for the period around 1890 or there abouts.
I understand that my Gt grandfather Edward William WATKINS 1872-1968 got his first prospecting experience on Stewart Island before heading to gold rushes in Western Australia & the Yukon.
Can anybody provide a lead?
