Aboriginal Families

Services and resources to help access records relating to Aboriginal people.

We offer services to support the rights of Aboriginal people to access information about themselves and their family.

We aim to ensure that access to and use of our records is sensitive to the views and traditions of Aboriginal people.

Our collection includes many records that can assist with Aboriginal history research.

We have produced a number of guides to assist researchers to find records relating to Aboriginal people.

Our archival record collection is an invaluable resource for family history research.

We offer a range of copying and digitisation options, or you can make your own copies at no cost.

To request a copy use the Indexes and Special Lists to find the reference to the original record.

As a member of the public make a Freedom Of Information application directly to the agency holding the documents you wish to access.
