The scan is held as Civil registrations etc-1.pdf and is deliberately not published on this page: dated 2020. A PDF's text is not read by any of the build's leak tests, so only documents dated before 1936 are copied into the site. Everything transcribed from it is on this page.

Research notes

Linda Farrell, June 2020: sixteen pages of FamilySearch CATALOGUE numbers for South African civil and church records NOT indexed on NAAIRS. Filed *** IT MUST NEVER PUBLISH, AND NOTHING HAS TO BE DONE TO KEEP IT WITHHELD. *** It is dated 2020, so scan_is_publishable() fails it on the 1936 cut-off, and publish_ok is deliberately BLANK. Two reasons it stays that way: it carries the compiler's personal email address on page 1, and republishing a third party's compiled work is not this project's to do. The original filename is preserved per 3; the DOC id is a label beside it, not a replacement. What it reaches in this project is set out in SRC-606's notes, and six leads now carry its catalogue numbers: LEAD-0076, 0078, 0079, 0112, 0325 and 0330, with LEAD-0331 opened on the pupillen registers.

The research behind this page, kept separate from it: dated working notes, open questions, and what is not yet settled.
