BARTLEY FAMILY ARCHIVE
Understanding our past we are empowered for our future.
The Bartley Family Archive is a volunteer project
established in 1997. The growth and development of the archive has been made
possible by the contributions of researchers in New Zealand and overseas. In
order for that growth to continue we encourage individuals and organisations to
donate copies of images, documents, genealogical data and materials on the
understanding that those donations will be made freely available to the public.
Anyone is free to use the images and information presented here. Your acknowledgement of the source as: Bartley Family Archive would be appreciated.
The Archive is further supported by my own work as a writer
and researcher. I have more than 20 years of experience in local and family
history research. In addition to ‘Colonial Architect – a Biography of Edward
Bartley’ I have contributed articles to numerous journals and publications.
Please email to
discuss how I may assist with your research or writing proposal.
