Research Services

We offer a research service for those who are unable to visit our library. The standard service is intended to research specific queries dealing with a particular family or problem. An initial, non-refundable, search fee of $25 covers the first 2 hours of time spent searching our Society’s library resources, local newspapers, family files and local knowledge.

This fee will cover limited photocopying and postage if necessary, or results can be emailed. Each extra hour spent will be charged at $10, but will only proceed after your authorisation.

We can supply some Shoalhaven birth, marriage and death records for an extra charge, see below.

Please make your requests clear, with enough detail to identify your person of interest. If you hold certificates or other relevant details, please advise so that we do not duplicate information already in your possession.

Your research names will be published in our journal, the Time Traveller, which is distributed to our members and many other Australian & overseas societies thus further increasing your chance of connections.
