from the SMITH burial database of New Zealand


BLUFF is a town and seaport in the Southland region, on the southern coast of the South Island. It is the southern-most town in New Zealand.

The Bluff area, while itself not settled by Maori, was one of the earliest areas of New Zealand where a European presence became established.
The first ship known to have entered the harbour was the 'Perseverance' in 1813, in search of flax trading possibilities, with the first European settlers arriving in 1823-1824

The Invercargill City Council maintains the following cemeteries.
