Australian Newspapers - Online
« on: Wednesday 01 September 10 12:39 BST (UK) »
People may already know of this, i have search but found nothing related so a general "broadcast" 

I stumbled across this auzzie website which appears to have Australian Newspapers from years gone by.... bit like Times online.  It is free from all accounts.

Maybe it will be usefull to those of you with more Auzzie ancestors than me!

Happy Hunting!

All free to search, free to download images or pdf versions  :)

http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/home The latest site

and earlier (but still currently a live link) http://newspapers.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/auth

and also even earlier version for 1840's http://www.nla.gov.au/ferg/browselist.html ... this one is not keyword searchable, the others are  ;D

Edit to add
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,399.0.html and lots of friendly RChatters on the Aussie Board  ;)
