Resources include cemetery transcriptions, school records, shipping information, church registers – Anglican and Methodist, journals, diaries and personal papers of prominent missionaries and pioneer families, Photographs from the Northwood Collection, Linwood Studios, Lou Hobson Collection and Hi Lite studios, and local newspaper archives – Northland Age.

The Archive holds the following BDM resources which were carried around so often cover a wider area than their title suggests (this list and information provided by Ahau in a topic dated 26 July 2019):
