 Unpublished and manuscript family histories are sometimes found in special collections of universities and colleges and with private individuals. These unpublished family histories are generally inaccessible for research unless you can contact a representative of the family who deposited them.

 The Family History Library has a few collections of genealogical material for New Zealand families. These may include published and unpublished collections of family histories and lineages, as well as the research files of prominent genealogists. One of the more significant collections in the Family History Library pertains to the Maori whakapaka (genealogies). One of the major genealogical collections is:
-New Zealand oral genealogy project. ''Oral Genealogy Interview[s] 1973-1979.'' (FHL film 990,404.) This film inventories the oral genealogies of many of the New Zealand Maori tribal nations. It is a detailed inventory of audio taped oral interviews conducted by Irene Davies in behalf of the Family History Department, along with the audio tape numbers.

This film inventories the oral genealogies of many of the New Zealand Maori tribal nations. It is a detailed inventory of audio taped oral interviews conducted by Irene Davies in behalf of the Family History Department, along with the audio tape numbers.
 There are also collections of some Maori whakapapa at the Temple View Family History Center in New Zealand. Permission from the families may be needed to view some of these records.
 A few New Zealand family histories are available in the Family History Library, normally listed under the surname of the family. Some collections of New Zealand pedigrees for the Maori are found in:
-The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. ''Genealogical Department Records Processing Division/Manual Processing Collections, 1949-1981''. Salt Lake City, Utah: 1989. (FHL films 1553385-391.)

 The New Zealand Society of Genealogists has created several major New Zealand record collections.&nbsp; For information go to http://www.genealogy.org.nz/Member_Services_9.aspx
 A few genealogical collections are listed in the Family History Library Catalog under the following&nbsp;:
 NEW ZEALAND - GENEALOGY
 NEW ZEALAND, [ISLAND] - GENEALOGY
 NEW ZEALAND, [ISLAND], [TOWN] - GENEALOGY
 Because much of New Zealand’s European population came from Great Britain, searches of British compiled sources should be made. The following publications are some which list sources for published family histories and pedigrees or give biographical information:
-Marshall, George W. ''The Genealogist’s Guide''. Reprint of 1903 ed. Baltimore, Maryland: Genealogical Publishing Company 1980. (FHL book 929.142 M356g 1980.)

 If you find your surname in any of the sources described in this section, determine whether the entry actually pertains to your family. One way to help determine if a published or printed family history relates to your family is to note the locality of the surname. Often, you will have to do some additional research before you can connect your ancestry to families listed in these sources.
