    3. Jeanette, The following is an entry from BDM New South Wales. It doesnt seem to match with the information you provided.. but it was the only combonation of any of the names given that showed up with anything.. perhaps the person who informed on her death did not know her parents?? 17324/1974 WILSON JUNE MOREEN WILLIAM GLADYS That is unless she is still with us... possibility she would be about 84. There is also this marriage 858/1944 ANGLE HERBERT CHARLES GORDON JUNE MAUREEN SYDNEY No death for June under the surname ANGLE either... Sorry if this is just making life more difficult for you.... Regards Sue.

    3. Hello all, I am wondering if you are able to help me. In my family tree, I have June Moreen Kraft/Wilson/Gordon, born in Townsville in 1925 to Mary Rose Annie Dorothea Gordon and supposedly, David William Wilson. He then apparently died in a railway accident in 1928. I have no idea what name June always used, though I think it was Gordon. She was "persona non grata" with the family and went to N.S.W. early on. I don't know if she married down there, but I'm sure she died down there, probably Sydney. Can anyone suggest where I could look for her? Thanks Jeanette Hartley

    1. Re: [AUS-QLD] Privacy Act
    2. Kerry Raymond
    3. True, but one of the stated exceptions is: 16E Personal, family or household affairs Nothing in the National Privacy Principles applies to: (a) the collection, holding, use, disclosure or transfer of personal information by an individual; or (b) personal information held by an individual; only for the purposes of, or in connection with, his or her personal, family or household affairs. So a person engaging in the hobby of family history in a personal way (as most of us do) is not covered by the Privacy Act. We can collect, hold and give away information about other people *including* living people. Many of us feel that we should be more careful with disclosing information about living people, but there is no legal requirement to do so. You can see this clearly stated here: http://www.privacy.gov.au/publications/IS12_01.html which is rather more readable than the legislation itself. Also see here for a specific discussion of people researching their family history: http://www.privacy.gov.au/faqs/ypr/q21.html However, if a person is engaged in family history as a professional genealogist (or perhaps in some role of a family history society), then they probably should check whether they are subject to the Privacy Act when operating in that capacity. http://www.privacy.gov.au/FAQs/sbf/q9.html Finally, there was a review a year or so ago into the Privacy Act, which contains some interesting discussion of a number of issues and gives some indication of where the legislation might be going in the future. You can read the whole thing here (if you are keen): http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/other/alrc/publications/reports/108/ Or you jump straight to the issue in question here (whether or not individuals acting in a personal capacity should be subject to the Privacy Act), including wrt family history (which rates a mention): http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/other/alrc/publications/reports/108/11.html#Hea ding26 Aside. Some states (e.g. Queensland) have specific legislation in relation to photography and the privacy issues associated with it. Again, popular opinion is that the legislation provides individuals with a lot more privacy rights than it actually does. Many of the situations in which people are told they cannot take photographs (e.g. of a children's sporting event) aren't actually covered by legislation (well, not in Qld anyway). If you are interested, the main restrictions in Qld relate to photography in bedrooms, bathrooms, changing rooms (and the other places that people may be *reasonably* expected to be undressed) and to covert photography of the genital area (so-called "up-skirt" photography). But there is no restriction of just about any outdoor photography or in indoor situations where people would normally be expected to be dressed (e.g. a classroom, a kitchen, etc).
