Are you interested in finding out your Family History? Are you doing your Family History and hit a brick wall? Trying to make sense of DNA? Do you want to know more about your family and their life in Campbelltown? A visit to the Family History Room at HJ Daley Library at Campbelltown is a must.
There you will find Australian Births/Deaths/Marriages, Assisted Immigration Records, Unassisted Immigration Records, Cemetery and Burial records and so much more. These records can be found in their books, microfilm and microfiche collections.
They also have computers set aside for online Family History research. You can access Ancestry, Find my Past and many local digital holdings. These databases can also be used at any of the branch libraries.
Need help with your research? If you’re just beginning or are stuck with your research, you can get help. Volunteers from Campbelltown and District Family History Society are at the library from 10 am to 12 pm Monday to Saturday to assist you.
Check the website for details. Bookings and enquiries can be made at the library or by phoning them.
Please note: library staff can help with catalogue searches, finding books and other resources, and will show you how to use the various machines (microfilm readers, for instance), but cannot do the research for you.
