Great news for those of you who have descendants in New South Wales Australia. The dates of NSW Marriages and Deaths have been extended to: Marriages to 1954 and Deaths to 1974. Go to this site to do your lookups.

Good luck

Reg,
Thank you for posting that great news.
So, the marriages of my grandparents and parents should be there.
And - who knows? - maybe I'll make my appearance there myself - birthwise, I mean - in the not-too-distant future.
Are you aware of any plans under way in NSW for something like the British FreeBMD thing? All my Braidwood research (see the thread I started on bushrangers) runs into a financial brick wall, because it would costs me a lot to obtain all the BMD stuff I need to sort out my Hickey ancestors. I cannot understand why the NSW BMD people don't drop their charges for family-history researchers, because we are rendering a heritage service when we publish our findings. To my way of thinking, the financial burden of this kind of research should be borne by NSW corporations and philanthropists...

I don't think NSW will drop the fee for service on BMD's. I got this news from a transcription service that I use instead of dealing direct with the BMD people. This is the site http://www.transcriptions.com.au It is a little cheaper.
Is there anything I may be able to look up at the National Library in Canberra for you? You can PM me if you wish. Do you know whether your ancestors are buried in Braidwood? The Genealogical Society here may have something seeing Braidwood is quite close to Canberra.
I also notice that you are a former Grafton person. Well, I come from Tyndale down towards Maclean on the Pacific Highway. O now live in Canberra. I saw your website and thought that maybe some of my cousins may be in the school photographs. I couldn't see them.

It's weird with deaths being available much later than births
Parents being listed, means I can search for children to a couple by their death (of course it's harder to prove)
I have found quite a bit more already
The target one day it to link up with those Holmes descendants in NSW!

Very weird that there is no publicity on the site, but very useful information

I was advised by a transcription agency that I use. Otherwise I wouldn't have heard about it either. So, I thought it appropriate to post it on this forum.

More than "appropriate" - great for NSW researchers - although it will now "cost me" for some extra transcriptions
I must remember to check the birth range occasionally as they may get updated as well.
Thanks again
Trish

Is is cheaper to get it trascribed than to get a certificate?
Thanks
