If you have a comment, question or suggestion about the project, we'd love to hear from you.
IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT YOUR FAMILY HISTORY OR PERSONAL RESEARCH, we do not have the resources to help. However, we use and recommend the following invaluable resources:
- The State Library of NSW (www.sl.nsw.gov.au) offers a free online information request service 'Ask A Librarian'.
- Trove, which is hosted by the National Library of Australia, searches many kinds of materials in collections across Australia, including digitised newspapers and is always a great place to start your research. (http://trove.nla.gov.au)
- Many government records are available at State Archives and Records NSW (https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/contact-us/ask-an-archivist)
- The Society of Australian Genealogists are experts in helping people trace family history details (http://www.sag.org.au).
- There may also be information at the National Archives of Australia (http://www.naa.gov.au/collection/family-history/).
- The City of Sydney Archives has many resources about the City which might be useful (and some GREAT maps) http://www.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/learn/history/archives
- Your local library, and the local history staff at the library in the area you're interested in, are the experts in your local area. Find a public library via the State Library of NSW here: http://www.sl.nsw.gov.au/public-library-services/about-public-library-services/find-public-library-nsw
