Does anyone have good sources for our ancestors who went to Austrailia??One of my great grandfathers daughters went there.

Yes, I have a great site for you. Visit this government web site and search for your ancestor putting his name in the "Keywords" field. If he became a naturalized Australian citizen, you should be able to find the record here.

Depending on the record, you may be able to view it for free or there may be a small charge (Ihaven't figured out what determines this status). The last time I directed someone to this site, they found over 20 documents including birth and marriage certificates, the naturalization application, and so on.

One thing: at some point, you will be asked to login. Just click the "Guest" button. Let me know how you make out, please.

Thanks Johnny

Michael the website is www.naa.gov.au/collect...index.aspx

Peter,

Your link does not work.

It works fine for me when you type the url in your address thingy. But oddly enough it also works fine for me in my forum url where I typed in the message????? =Peter=

Doesn't work for me either.

Besides, what was wrong with my link?

You mean when you type it in your address URL?? =Peter=

If you provide the correct link, we should be able to click on it and go directly to the web page.

I will repeat the link to you now:

www.naa.gov.au/collect...earch.aspx

Just so you know the proper url: naa.gov.au/collection/recordsearch.aspx

Please let me know what happens this time?? =Peter=

Now it works!
