Good afternoon list, While gathering information to be indexed into www.ryersonindex.org I found a list of Civil Servants in the Sydney Morning Heralds of April 1885, not long after the relevant Act of Parliament was introduced. Volunteers are transcribing those lists to the Sydney Rootsweb List and from those lists over the past two weeks, I have extracted the entries relevant to the Hawkesbury and Hunter and pasted them here in the hope that it will help some lister.
