    Very informative and well presented. I went on the Tasmanian state archives and found an early 1800s death record image thanks to the webinar.

    Shauna's talk covered all the basic archives repositories throughout Australia that one needs to both get started for the beginner and avenues to search for the seasoned researcher. So much has been added since I began my family history in 1980. One tends to forget to look for new sites after so long, but Shauna has set me out looking all over again. Thank you Shauna.
