Find your ancestors in Victoria Police Gazette 1868
Police Gazettes are a unique, useful and extremely fascinating resource for local, family and social historians and researchers in other fields throughout Australia. Compiled to be distributed amongst the Police Force only, these Gazettes therefore contain details and information that can not be found anywhere else.
They include court lists, lists of warrants issued, appointments and changes in the Police Service, lists of arrests and discharges (which include descriptions), escaped prisoners, and sometimes missing persons. Notices from Police Gazettes from other states are also often included.
Some example entries are:
Notice - 2 January 1868
All persons having claims against the Police Department are requested to present them for payment without delay, and all members of the force are required to use every means in their power to facilitate the settlement of such accounts.
The Government does no hold itself responsible for private debts by members of the Police Force.
Murder, etc. - 3 September 1868
