Noeline Briggs-Smith deposited the collection in the
Library, in October 2001, on behalf of the Northern Regional Library and
Information Service at Moree, New South Wales..
The collection consists largely of certified copies of
birth, death and marriage certificates of Aboriginal people in the Moree and
surrounding areas. In addition, there are birth, death and funeral notices,
for example from The Australian Evangel, and printouts from sources
such as the 'Index to the Brian Williams Family History Genealogies’ held at
the University of New England Regional State Archives. Included also are
notes made from church records, such as baptismal records from the Salvation
Army Church Records at Moree, family record sheets, such as those from the
Griffith Genealogical & Historical Society and other papers.
There is also a photocopy of 'A Grose family history' and
various documents such as birth and death certificates for the Grose family;
some family trees and a printout of the descendants of Ada Parker.
The collection consists entirely of photocopies.
A search on the Institute's
Mura® online
catalogue under topical subject
headings such as 'Genealogy and family history', or under family names,
may locate other relevant material.
