I understand that gaining free index for BDM does not occur in Vic. I am wondering if sks could advise me as to what I need to do from NSW to trace the ZILLES family from Ballarat Vic. I am looking for the marriage and children of Conrad and Hilda Elsie (SIEMERING) ZILLES...Conrad Zilles may have been a musician. Many thanks for any suggestions Poppy ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to AUS-VIC-GOLDFIELDS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
