Records, 1776-1980 |}} This collection will include records from 1776 to 1980. These are miscellaneous Australian genealogical records. This material is handwritten or typed on index cards. The cards are filed in alphabetical order by surname. Some index cards are transcripts of newspaper reports of births, marriages, and deaths; some are transcripts of various vital records, and so on. The emphasis appears to be New South Wales, with some Victorian records. Some cards show LDS ordinance work (Temple Index Bureau) and extracts of LDS membership records. Other cards list information regarding various LDS families, and the emphasis appears to be South Australia (but does not include the early LDS families there). The collection is composed of three sets of cards: #The first set has data transcribed from birth, marriage and death records along with newspaper notices. The emphasis is on New South Wales with some records from Victoria. #The second set is an index to temple and church records of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. #The third set is data primarily from family records and vital certificates. The emphasis is on families of South Australia with some additional information on families from Queensland. The population coverage is minimal. These cards were created as indexes to various genealogical records. == Record Content == <gallery>Image:Australia, Miscellaneous Genealogical Records DGS 4117124 355.jpg|Birth Record Image:Australia, Miscellaneous Genealogical Records DGS 4117124 391 Death Record.jpg|Death Record Image:Australia, Miscellaneous Genealogical Records DGS 4117124 1028 Marriage.jpg|Marriage Record </gallery> '''These records''' usually include the following information: *Name of the spouse with place and date of marriage *Age and place of birth *Residence and occupation *Names of descendants *Names of parents with their places of birth *Place and date of death *Amount of time resident in Australia *Names of siblings with their ages *Some temple ordinance dates (on [[LDS Temple Records#Endowment_Index_.281842.E2.80.931970.29.|Temple Index Bureau]] cards) == How to Use the
