    3. Dear Sophia, Your e-mail address suggest you might be in the Netherlands (Holland) so please be patient with the other replies if its not obvious to them. What surname are you looking for ? Sometimes names appear from other vague references. NSW State Records web site states........ Index to the 1841 Census This index covers all the surviving householders' returns and abstracts of returns. As the returns record only the name of the head of the household, the names of the other people resident in the household are not identified. For the 1830 -1840 years you are looking for, and the area concerned is well beyond the "limits of settlement" as stipulated by the government of the day. Google shows this document but it is very slow to load because it is 115 pages but it will help you. http://www.young.nsw.gov.au/images/news/ysc-%20thematic%20history.pdf The Murringo Community Association seems to have members who are very active in local history.
