Hi, There is a group of people doing "The Ryerson Index".....these volunteers type up the deaths/funerals from their local papers. SITE: http://www.rootsweb.com/~nswsdps Hope this is of some help. Might I just add that John Graham is "always" looking for more volunteers. <VBG> Cheerio Shirley (I am helping with the Courier Mail and the Queensland Times). The "Dead Persons Society of Toowoomba" site has funerals notices for a few papers also
