We have some great news for family historians.
The Index to Victorian births, deaths and marriages has been updated and you can now search for marriages up to 1950! That’s 8 years of additional marriages!
Births have also been extended by a year.
The Index to Victorian births, deaths and marriages now covers:
Births: 1853-1917
Marriages: 1853-1950
Deaths: 1853-1988
Church baptisms, marriages and burials in Victoria: 1836 to 1853
We can’t wait to see what new records we discover. And speaking of new records, check out one of our first finds!
Happy searching all!
That’s terrific news Carmen. Many thanks for letting everyone know about these newly searchable indexed Vic BDM records. I like your first find too. Cheers for now, Neil
Thanks Neil!
Fantastic!
Thanks for the good news, in my opinion, QLD has best information on BDM’s, NSW has best length of record search. Great improvement.
