Yes MA.....An excellent resource much used by 'chatters.

Listed previously in September 08.

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,327927.0.html

May I suggest a browse through the resources listed to save duplication.

Cheers

Hi Cando,

I have gone over the postings on this thread, and had not found the beta version of the newspapers listed on this thread.

Thank you for that link that indiciates where that newspaper link had been listed back in Sept 08, and yes I had browsed that link previously.  It was not my intention to cause you concern about duplication, but rather to offer the link for those, like me, who have found the rootschat site only recently, and thus are much less experienced at finding the relevant threads.  I am sorry for causing this duplication of the link to the newspaper site.

Cheers, and my apologies,  Embarrassed

Hi All,

http://www.library.jcu.edu.au/subjectgds/Fac1/LibGuides/indigfamhist.shtml  -For those tracing their Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and South Sea Islander family heritage this site could be very helpful.  I am not sure if this link has been posted on other threads, but perhaps it is relevant to place the link here as this thread seems to be for all Australian Resources.

Cheers,

MA

Well why list it again?

If all new people to the site listed every site they found useful there would be utter confusion that is why I suggested you browse ALL the Australian Resources...  scroll down the board.  You may find something that interests you....you never know. 

You can use the Search rootschat at the top of the board if you are looking for something in Australian Resources.

Hi Cando,

I am sorry that you seem to think I am somehow duplicating those listings, and I am somewhat embarassed to admit that I do not quite grasp why putting a link on the main thread headed 'AUSTRALIAN RESOURCES' should cause any adverse comments from anyone, particularly when the link I placed there was not already listed on that specific thread.   Not all the people who visit this site are as familiar with this site as you are, but we all were once beginners, needing a helping hand.  I believe in sharing and caring, and I am sure you do too.  I apologise for any misunderstanding caused by my postings.  I thought I was contributing something of value to help others, I am sorry that you may have thought otherwise.  I am not used to be scolded, and I do not understand why you would think that my posting warranted your response.

Cheers, please accept my apology.

Perhaps re-read what I wrote...I was not scolding I was making  helpful suggestions...I say no more because there will be another long response.

Ahem!

Genuine mistake - say no more - duplication is more of an issue when requesting info than when supplying it!

Merry Christmas!

This link helps with information about Chinese immigration to Australia, from way before Federation, not just recent arrivals.  There is a searchable database.

Hi M A

Please keep adding web links.  Not everyone is the perfect searcher and for some reason everytime I try to find a link I can never find it.
To the experts on R C please be patient with the less experienced.

Cheers
