Government Gazettes are a unique, useful and extremely fascinating resource for local, family and social historians and researchers in other fields throughout Australia. They were published by the government as a means of communication to officials and the general public and therefore contain information that is of great use in establishing an image of Australia and its people in the past.

A large volume of over 3,000 pages, the 1884 gazette includes information relating to a wide variety of topics – of interest to both genealogists and historians.
