Can anyone help or refer me to a person or company who will do this for me? The Ryerson Index people say it could take months for one of their volunteers to look them up and am hoping for a more timely response. Thanks very much! Marg McFarlane, aka Marg in Sunny Alberta

Are alot of look up volunteers out here in 'look up land' We have many years of the Sydney Morning Heralds notices on CDs Everyone does a different year or a couple of years I do SMH 1976 and my local newspaper http://www.ryersonindex.org/ Have another go MargM Sydney & Australia List Admin
Dear Marg, On the main page of the Ryerson Index there is an icon "Request a Lookup". Click on that icon for a form to come up. You fill in that form with the details from the Ryerson Index. By the wonders of computers each request goes direct to the volunteer to do lookups for that year and that paper. In most cases you will get a copy of the image. The Ryerson Index does not usually have copies of Funeral Notices in the collection. Each request needs to be a separate request as they go to different volunteers. Sincerely, Bill > > I'm new to the List, am from Canada, and am wondering if some kind > soul with a National Library of AU library card: >
