'Obituaries Australia'
'Obituaries Australia' is a new digital repository of obituaries published in newspapers, journals and magazines. Recently launched, you will already find a great collection of stories about various Australians from the earliest times to present. The website is hosted by the National Centre of Biography at ANU. The 'Obituaries Australia' site will focus on published obituaries, which will be great for family and local historians. Easy to use, there is a Quick Search as well as Advanced Search and you search place names, occupation, dates etc. The organisers are keen for community participation by sending copies of obituaries of people you have researched.
