For the French period, i.e. before 1810, research has to be made at the National Archives in Coromandel
Requests of acts must be addressed to: arc#mail.gov.mu

The National Archives of Mauritius  is now partially online at: https://nationalarchives.govmu.org/NationalArchivesServices/login.do. Registration is necessary but access is free.

The database of CGMR contains a large number of transcriptions from the digitization of the parish and civil status registers for this period, which have been almost completely digitized. More transcriptions are under way and will be placed online on our website as soon as they are validated and pending publishing agreement.
