    3. Please excuse the x-posting folks. I am wondering if anyone has a clue where I would go or who to approach in regard to getting records for mail routes in the 1800's and early 1900's in Victoria. Thanks Regards Denise

    3. G'day You face a real problem. Irrespective of mail delivery routes you need to be aware that house numbers were reallocated in inner Melbourne around the turn of the 19th century. If you are looking for a particular individual at a particular address, that makes life very difficult. You might contact the historical section at Australia Post for advice.
