Checking NSW Govt. records on line, finding that 'from 1940' there's a good chance I will be able to get an inquest record, but with only a partial refund if they don't find it. Clement A Miller died 1940 aged abt 83(death record 20603) in a house fire at Glenorie NSW. The cost of copying inquest files is $15.00 per file, $4.00 postage/handling per file and an admin fee $15. I read where there were 'gaps' in these records. My genie library only has film to 1911. Would someone know if these records are on film say at State Library Vic, on line isn't likelyof course :-( regds Di Allen

I suggest that you approach the registry of the Court concerned. In Victoria, in 1907, there were no transcripts in the County Court, or in General Sessions (now merged with the County Court.) The Judge took notes of the evidence. Transcripts in the Supreme Court became compulsory a while back, but during my time in practice.

Hi, In a death notice of my husbands G Grandmother it states she was "guardian of grandson James". She died in 1928. It is likely that there would be "paper work" for this or more likely just a "family thing"? If it is likely to be done legally then does anyone have an idea where you may find this paper work? Thank you Pat

I am in Victoria and want to obtain a court transcript from a trial in 1907 in the Melbourne Court. I don't seem to be able to find where I may get the transcript or even if one can get it ( Don't think PRO has them). Does anyone have any experience in this and can direct me to the el dorado? Many thanks Paul

Dear Deb, You may get some more positive feedback from the Charleville & District Historical Society Inc.: http://www.charlevillehistorichouse.com.au/ Also Roma & District Local & Family History Society PO Box 877, Roma QLD 4455 no active web site I notice last year you posted a related message also: Tue, 26 Oct 2010 in which you added an extra word: Carrier's Arms Hotel, Charleville, Maranoa Using the gazetteer of place names, and still in the Charleville region but towards Roma, http://www.ga.gov.au/place-name/ Could the hotel be part of the homestead , or could it be in the town of Mitchell? Maranoa Homestead QLD location...... Latitude -26 31 Longtitude 148 1 The station buildings are on the eastern side of the Maranoa River slightly south east of the town of Mitchell More possible resources with e-mail contact: http://www.libraries.slq.qld.gov.au/home/services/roma/roma_library http://www.libraries.slq.qld.gov.au/home/services/roma/mitchell_library Also in case you're trying to locate Eroungella Station, it is accessed via the Mt Margaret Tobermory Rd, Eromanga, QLD 4480 which is about 300km south-west of Charleville In some towns, the hotel / inn named "Carrier's Arms" was possibly connected with Cobb & Co. Terminology may be important in your search, too. My father worked as a contract carrier for much of his life driving trucks etc which he owned. Even projecting backwards to horse drawn days, I would not hardly expect that he would have been called a teamster. To me that is North American terminology, but I could be wrong. In Australian English, a teamster was also known as a bullocker or bullocky http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullocky http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_carrier I hope some of these ideas may end up being fruitful.

Hi All I'm hoping somebody out there can help me. I have two questions. Firstly, does anybody have any suggestions for research on teamsters of western nsw/southern central qld during the era 1870-1900. Especially the Dubbo to Bourke, then onto the Roma to Charleville routes. Second question, can anyone help me to find a photo of the old Carrier Arms Hotel in Charleville, it apparently changed name to Bell's Hotel between 1910-1930. Cheers Deb

Hi Vicki, There are a couple of places to contact: 1. the Melbourne Museum or State Library to advise you. 2. Your local historical society would have the information. - http://home.vicnet.net.au/~gfamhist/index.htm 3. http://www.conservationvolunteers.com.au/contact%20us/documents/GeelongWeb_000.pdf You might find something here. The most important thing is to not laminate/store in plastic unless it is archival and do not unfold and refold because it will weaken the fibres in the paper. Also, be careful when handling the document as natural oils from the hands could stain it.

Hi Everyone I'm looking for a family by the name of Andrews who immigrated to Western Australia from the UK in the 1970's. Where would the best place be to start on finding these people. Perhaps someone could look on the current Electoral rolls for me, will give their names privately. Kind regards Dianna

Current electoral rolls are only available at electoral offices and state libraries, so you need to visit in person. Unlike older electoral rolls, current electoral rolls aren't a resource someone can do lookups from home.

Thanks Kerry...I noticed the correction and it was very kind of you. Made it so much easier. Gloria

Often search terms don't find articles in the newspaper because of the errors in automated transcription. But if you know the date of an event, you can always find articles by going to the list of newspapers: http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/titles and then choosing the newspaper (in this case the Sydney Morning Herald) and then choose the year (a drop-down list) and then the month and then the day and then search through the pages to find the BDM notices and then just read them. If you have the date of death, you can be reasonably confident that the funeral notice will appear within a couple of days of that date. That is how I found the notice. I also corrected the text while I was there so hopefully the next person looking for it might find it more easily. Kerry
