A Remarkable Database
In our relentless pursuit of preserving local history, we have painstakingly maintained an in-house database known as the North Queensland Collection. This remarkable resource is a comprehensive index of surname and forename references found within our library, comprising over a million individual references and encompassing more than 52,000 surnames and variants. Covering the historical development of Queensland shires straddling the Tropic of Capricorn 23.5°S and extending north to Cape York, west to the Northern Territory border, with the exception of the City of Rockhampton, this database is an indispensable tool for researchers seeking to unravel their North Queensland heritage.
