Where to start in Mauritius

1 of the 1 checked source here can be opened tonight. 1is free images with no account. On top of that, 9 worldwide services reach Mauritius without a subscription.

1 more institution is listed here and has never been checked — nobody has opened it, written to it, or found out what it holds. They are on the map as grey because that is what they are, and the honest reading of this page is 1 known-open, 1 unknown.

Write to National Archives of Mauritius for what is not online. FamilySearch has 2 collections covering it, running 1770–1820, 28,311 indexed records. No jurisdiction region covers Mauritius yet, so this atlas cannot say whose archive held this ground in a given year — and it will not guess.

No place in Mauritius has been walked. The archives above are real and the shelf below is empty — which means nobody has been through the paper, not that there is none. Open Mauritius on the map, or tell us what is missing.

The archives

  • Gazettes.Africa free Cape Town, South Africa

    Digitised government gazettes for 24 African countries, free and full-text searchable. A gazette is where a state prints the things it must announce — naturalisations, estate and insolvency notices, name changes, appointments — so it names ordinary people that no register indexes. The atlas held no gazette of any country before this one.

  • National Archives of Mauritius unsurveyed Mauritius

    National Archives of Mauritius — national archive of Mauritius. Promoted so the country has somewhere to write to at all; its address was opened and nothing else about it has been checked, including whether it holds anything genealogical.

And 12 worldwide providers reach Mauritius too — the full list.

2 FamilySearch collections

Grouped by the ground each one covers, nationwide. A free account opens the images; some are restricted to a Family History Centre.

1 more collections, contributed

A directory David assembled, sorted by what kind of record each one is. Read this differently from the rest of the page. The descriptions are his, not an archive's catalogue, and nobody here has opened the volumes behind them. Every link was tried on 2026-09-20 and answered; the ones that did not are not listed.

The shelf — the volume-by-volume layer — has not been walked in Mauritius. That is a gap in this map, not a gap in the record: the collections above reach this ground and are worth opening. Help fill it →
