| The Marriage Act of 1847 required the annual registration of all licensed officiating ministers, and the lists of ministers were published each year in the New Zealand Gazette. In 1990, the New Zealand Society of Genealogists published the lists for 1848-1900 on microfiche, which are available at the main Family History Library. (Family History Library {{FSC|642462|title-id|disp=Fiche 6344560}}. No circulation to Family History Centers.) These published lists can serve as a directory of the churches in New Zealand throughout the years. They give the name of the minister, the denomination, and the location of the church. | | The Marriage Act of 1847 required the annual registration of all licensed officiating ministers, and the lists of ministers were published each year in the New Zealand Gazette.
