These indexes were compiled by various indexers from the photographs published on the FamilySearch web site under the section South Africa, Cape Province, Civil Deaths, 1895-1972. For a description and further information about the origin and use of these records please consult the FamilySearch Wiki-article South Africa, Cape Province, Civil Deaths (FamilySearch Historical Records). The use of the published images are subject to the Terms of Use of FamilySearch.

FamilySearch started publishing the images of the  'forms of information of a death' in the first half of 2012 as 'images only' i.e. without indexes. The need for indexes rapidly led to individuals taking the initiative in indexing them and contributing their work to various online forums.

The indexes published below are completed indexes from the project mentioned above, presented in a regular format and searchable form. We hope that this may help researchers in accessing the hard work that is being done. This is done in collaboration with the indexers themselves.
