Hi Kerry, When I bought my Probate Index fiche (pre-internet), it was from the Supreme Court in Sydney, and I think this is still the case. Suggest you ring them or check out their website. Hope this helps Pam An Aussie transplanted to Rotorua, NZ At 13:10 16.05.06 +1000, Kerry Bugden wrote: >I have an idea that you can purchase microfiche of the probate recors. Is this so?

I posted several messages about this firstly in about Feb last year and again mid year . Search the HV lists archives and you will find the how to get details . Cost of the whole set of fiche ( abt 200 ) was only about $27 Bye MargM Hunter Valley List Admin

Hello All I'm new to the list - hoping to find contacts and info re the above families of the Hunter region. My big dead end; John CAMPBELL (born Paisley Scotland) m Catherine M HARRIGAN (born Stanhope NSW)in Branxton 1885. I cant work out who Catherine's parents were without getting 4 certs or transcriptions. A number of Catherine Harrigans were born between 1860-4 in the Hunter. Also cant find Catherine's death record from the parents listed on possible birth certs. The witnesses to this marriage were; Peter CAMPBELL and Annie HARRIGAN. Would love more info on Thomas and Peter Campbell also. They were both miners. CURRAN/FITZSIMMONS

HI I am based in the UK but researching my family history in NZ and Australia. This is a simple question but I am new to genealogy in Australia. I have a person who was a farmer in 1873 according to a death certificate. Apart from electoral rolls, are there any other ways I can locate/follow him and his family from 1849 until 1873? The only two firm records I have of them in Australia at this point. Thank you for any suggestions.
