Wonderful information and well presented.
I’m a West Australian living in the UK and found this session of great importance and full of in good information regarding searching the Battye Library for family history. Thank you.
A great taster of some free Western Australian sites. Some of which are not well known so even if you think you know Western Australian research it is well worth listening to Shauna's presentation
