Dear Louise, I think both would like a copy. Even the Society of Australian Genealogists at 120 Kent Street SYDNEY would probably be interested in having a copy, along with a Group Sheet to put in their Primary Records Collection, for inspection by interested researchers for years to come. Have you thought of approaching the owner by way of a letter just addressed to "The Occupier" as an introduction to your visit? Leichhardt Council I think have a Local Studies Librarian at the library so that person could probably be approached the same way. Sincerely,Bill > Hello all, > > Thanks for the help. I have checked up using the domain real estate

Dear Sandra, If you do not have details of the accident then there would have been an Inquest into the deaths, and those records are retained at State Records KINGSWOOD. If the deaths happened at AUBURN then in those days the Inquest would have probably been held at PARRAMATTA and the finding forwarded to the City Coroner who was located then in George Street North in SYDNEY (now GLEBE). He would record the finding in the Register, which has now been microfilmed. See www.records.nsw.gov.au and look for Archives in Brief No 4 which deals with Inquests. Sincerely,Bill > Looking for further details of the following family, hoping someone might > access to newspaper archives, or be researching the Same family.

Dear Louise, The Boulevard, Lilyfield (note: no final 'e' ) runs between Balmain Rd and Joseph St. You can find it on http://www.whereis.com.au Unless there has been some major re-development of the particular housing block, then probably it still is as it was built. Here is Leichhardt Council's Library site: http://www.lmc.nsw.gov.au/libraries/07/ Local History:........................ http://www.lmc.nsw.gov.au/libraries/07/1041999951_16739.html This is what the local history librarian has to say:...................... " Local History and you We are always adding new resources to the Local History collection. Do you have items of local interest that you would like to donate or loan? Photographs of life in the Leichhardt area, books, memorabilia, art works, papers of local societies and organisations are all welcome." "If you would like to contribute to the collection, be interviewed as part of our Oral History Project or know someone who would, contact the Local History Librarian at Leichhardt Library on (02) 9367 xxxx. " ............ E-mail, phone and fax contacts on the above page too I don't think there would be too many copies of what you propose in the library collection ! I'm sure that they will greet you with open arms.
