Over the past few months we have released 3 new projects keyed through the World Archives Project, England, Newspaper Index Cards, Sydney and New South Wales, Sands Street Index, 1861-1930 and Perth, Scotland, Survey of Inhabitants, 1766, 1773. The indexes for these projects, containing more than 1.27 million records, can be searched for free due to the efforts of 5500+ contributors!
The Andrews Collection, aka England, Newspaper Index Cards, is a collection of newspaper clippings, and transcriptions, pasted onto index cards detailing births, marriages, etc. (I still recall keying the announcements for the death of a serviceman and less than a month later the birth of his son; my heart ached for the young wife.) Although these records were not the easiest to key it was definitely worth the time it took to bring these events to life.
The Sydney and New South Wales, Sands Street Index, 1861-1930, was our first directory project keyed by the community. In Australia directories are important to family history research due to the lack of census records -researchers can track their ancestors location through time and hopefully find the names of other relatives.
And Perth, Scotland, Survey of Inhabitants, 1766, 1773 records landlords and tenants – sometimes appearing as letters and more often as easy to follow forms. The landlords were requested to provide an account of their tenants, sub-tenants and familes including their occupations and what parish they came from so this collection is a treasure trove of information.
