About these records

This wonderfully accurate record is a great genealogy tool for anyone with a family history in this area at the time; providing an index of people who were recorded on the five NT census rolls from 1881 to 1921, with a roll taken every ten years. This may help trace ancestors who made the Northern Territory their home. Particularly during this era, many came to the Northern Territory to escape their responsibilities or to remain elusive to family.
