NEW  ZEALAND  CHESS  CHAMPIONS

This information kindly supplied by Peter Stuart.

Note:  Up to 1934 foreign players were eligible for the title. The eligibility rules were changed in 1935 to preclude this; J.A.Erskine (champion in 1935) was born in Invercargill and was therefore eligible although he was domiciled in Melbourne, Australia.
