Cunnamulla & south-west Queensland: Miscellaneous sources (part 2 of 3)

Explanation of the lists of names:

• Names are from records created between the 1860s and now re Paroo and Bulloo Shires (Cunnamulla, Eulo, Thargomindah and Wyandra areas).
• Names are from thirty (30) series of records. Some are in my private collection. Others are in archives or libraries.
• Scroll through the list. Some names were spelled incorrectly in the records.
• Names without a surname, eg 'Billy (Aboriginal)', are listed under the first letter of the name.
• Names beginning with 'Mc' precede other 'M' surnames.
• Apostrophes have been removed from names such as O'LOGHLEN.
• If there is more than one entry for a name, the same person may be mentioned more than once, or there may be several people with the same name. Check *all* such entries, because some may be more detailed or more accurate than others.
• For names below, see how to get information, or copies of the original records.

Names beginning with  A - F   G - O   P - Z

Genealogy is my business (not just a hobby), and I've spent over 35 years learning about (and indexing) original records, so I charge fees for my time (eg, to read and reply to emails, consult my index, and, if applicable, travel to a record office, find the bundle/volume and file/page, obtain digital images, and send them to you).

You don't pay for '(see...)' cross-references. For example, if the list said
    BLOGGS Joe
    BLOGGS Joe
    BLOGGS Joseph (see BLOGGS Joe)
then you'd request '2 x BLOGGS Joe' and pay for 2 entries (not 3, because the 3rd entry is just a cross-reference).

Option No.1:  SW-Qld Miscellaneous INDEX: Record Series & Quote.

$4 for one entry, plus $1 for each additional entry (same name or different names). If you get details from my index, you will sometimes see that the record (1) must be for a different person with the same name, or (2) is something you already have; in which case you won't waste money ordering a copy that you don't need.

What I'll tell you (from my index):

• 'Document was created sometime BETWEEN [year] and [year]'.
• Series type.
• Possible contents of the original document.
• Notes (if any) that I made during indexing (sometimes with identifying details).
• No-obligation quote for a digital image of the original document.

To send a request, follow these steps:

1. Calculate the cost ($4 for one entry, plus $1 each for extras).
2. Send payment by bank deposit or PayPal as explained here (opens in a new window).
3. In an email, type 'SW-Qld Miscellaneous INDEX: record series & quote', and...
4. List the entries you want. Don't send biographical details - just the names.
5. In your email, tell me the payment date, amount and method, and (if you have one) an alternative email address.
6. Send your email to the address shown on the payment page.

Option No.2:  SW-Qld Miscellaneous: Digital COPY.

The cost will depend on the record series, number of pages and record format (eg: loose page within a bundle; microfilmed file; hardcopy register; etc). Use the Record Series/Quote service above.
