Note.—The figures under each separate district do not indicate precisely the amount of Land and Stock actually within that particular district, as in some instances the owners of Land or Stock returned the same in the district in which they happened to return their own names, &c., while the Land or Stock, or a portion thereof, might be in a different district. It is impossible to ascertain what proportion of the Land fenced or in crop is freehold.

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
