This divorce record came up in a batch I am indexing. The instructions say to index marriage records but nothing about divorce records. Should I index these records?


South Africa, KwaZulu Natal—Vital Records, 1868–1976 [Part D][M3ZK-WVZ]

    Based on the project instructions:

    • Mark all other records, including baptism, marriage consent forms, divorce, Indian passes, discharges, affidavits, claims, change of name documents, burial records, and handwritten or typed notes and memos, in Step 1: Images as No, No Extractable Data.


    You should not index divorce records. Mark it No, No Extractable Data.

    Thank you! I went back and re-read instructions and found the part about divorce near the bottom!
