The Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk (NGK) church registers on FamilySearch.org

The Genealogical Society of Utah (GSU), an organ of the Latter Day Saints (LDS) has published a collection of black and white photographs of a number of South African church registers here: Historical Record Collections - Africa

One of these collections is listed as South Africa, Dutch Reformed Church Registers, 1660-1970. In fact these appear to be church registers of the Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk (NGK) records from that denomination's archive, The NG Kerkargief, Noordwal-Wes, Stellenbosch, South Africa.

There is an index in the process of being compiled, also called:

South Africa, Dutch Reformed Church Registers, 1660-1970

Items found in that index link to the following, but there is no information as to whether these are all completely indexed or not.

  see the menu on the left of this page )

Tulbagh Marriages 1899-1911

(The Tulbagh baptisms and marriages prior to 1800 can be found transcribed and searchable on the eGGSA BDM web site -  see the menu on the left of this page)

A further collection of Cape NGK church register photographs exists, this is also named

South Africa, Dutch Reformed Church Records, 1690-2007

It is sorted under Year Range but has no other sort of order or system imposed on it, nor are the registers identified, either by place name or by the NGK Archives shelf number. Some of these I have been able to identify. I have added the NGK Archives reference and the Year Range heading as found on the LDS page.  

If you can supply such information about other of these year ranges that I have not yet been able to get around to, I will be happy to add it here if you let me have it. Richard Ball  richard.ball@eggsa.org
