Thanks Maddys52

I use Chrome so I downloaded Firefox & it works, strange!!!. I was having withdrawal symptoms not being able to open up SMH papers. I did try Duckduckgo browser a couple of weeks ago but that was the same as chrome.

thanks so much

Thanks Cinderdrinker

I don't have problems with Trove SMH up to 1954, I don't need to log in searching this site.

It's the National Library of Australia - Eresources. When I log in (See attached example) I can open the 1st paper but not the Sydney papers.

The Sunday Times Digital Archive 1822-2021

**The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age : library edition
**The Sydney Morning Herald Archives 1955-1995

Is it because I am trying to open it up on a computer. These days companies want you to see everything through an APP which I loathe.

thanks
Jane

Hello

This is driving me nuts so I'm hoping someone can help me with accessing the NSW newspapers on eresources. I don't have any problems accessing the Gale News Vault but when I want to search The Sydney Morning Herald 1955-1995 & The Sydney & Age my (Kaspersky internet security) shows" Visiting an untrustworthy website has been prevented" & then I get the message '404 not found'. I have cleared my browsing data on my computer & paused the security but still no luck. Any suggestions would be very grateful. Can't work out why I can open Gale but not Aussie papers.

thanks
Jane

Thank you all for your help.

Thanks Maddys52 for the link, I did the same not looking further down the page. Interesting my notes have John Darragh's occupation as a Butcher so perhaps they mixed up the surname.? The only info I have on his death is the article in Trove.

thanks again everyone.

Australia / John DARRAGH death 1895
« on: Sunday 23 July 23 05:42 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I'm looking for a death certificate. According to N.S.W. newspaper he died on board Mariposa in 1895.
Is it because he died on a ship that no death was recorded in NSW.
How can I find information on ships death log etc. like what he died off.

The Daily Telegraph (Sydney, NSW : 1883 - 1930)  Sat 14 Dec 1895
DARRAGH.—Died on October 10th, on board
Mariposa, John, beloved son of John Dar-
ragh, Waverley. Deeply regretted. R.I.P.
Ora pro him. Melbourne papers please copy.

Thank you Jane

Is there a website that has newspaper indexes that I can search in the Daily Telegraph (Sydney) for 1995 death notices.
I tried Ryerson Index but got no replies.

thanks

Be aware that - unless the indexer for Ryerson has made a mistake - there will be no date of death/funeral in the notice.  'Publication' as date means there is no other date available.

Thanks for the heads up Dawn, was hoping siblings names may have been mentioned. I shall order her marriage to prove parentage.
