    Default NLA Newspapers - Australia

    I have found the following website - National Library of Australia newspapers a godsend when researching my ancestors, including birth, engagement, marriage and death announcements as well as University exam results, divorce info and other social info.

    http://newspapers.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/home

    Just type in your ancestors name and the search engine will bring up a number of hits. You do have to look through a lot of stuff but you can narrow the search down.

    I hope it gives someone some help.

    Thanks for the tip - on my first search I found my maternal grandfather back in 1936 who was taken to hospital with an injury to his jaw unable to explain what had happened!!!
