Deaths

Age	Has been included with a derived year of birth calculated from the age shown in the notice.  Where the full date of birth is known, then it has been included.
Names	In all cases, there has been no attempt to make assumptions for names.
Associated Family Names	These are the Family Names of people mentioned in a death notice, in the sequence they are shown in the notice.
Locations	If the event has occurred within the Wellington Region, that is, Wellington City to Upper Hutt, or Wellington City to Otaki, then the Location column may show Wellington Region.  The locations use the format of town/city, district, country, where known.   Click the Map to see the Wellington Region, North Island, New Zealand.
Paper Dates	The notices may be inserted over several days, but only the first entry date is shown.  Where subsequent notices provide further information, then the entry is updated accordingly.   The Wellington paper is entered daily without fail, while the others are loaded as and when they arrive and I have time to enter them.   For example, if someone died in Wanganui, the death notice was published in the Wanganui paper, but not the Wellington paper.  But some people travelled from Wellington to the funeral, and there is a Thanks/Acknowledgement published in the Wellington newspaper (as well as the Wanganui paper). I will see the Wellington notice first and enter the record from that Thanks/Acknowledgement notice.  Later, when the Wanganui paper arrives, I will update that record with any new data that is in the Wanganui notice - like age, DOB, etc.  Sometimes there is no other notice (you will see "ACK only" in the Comments) - these people may have come from outside the 3 regions, but there were Wellington people at the funeral. If the deceased person comes from a Taranaki family, then there may well be notices published in the Taranaki paper, which provides more information - Maiden Name for example. So a death record is a composite that could have come from multiple notices placed in all 3 papers.  I do not have time to enter notices multiple times with page references - my objective is to provide pointers to help people with research.
Dates	All dates are shown in the format of Year-Month-Day.
