You can find NSW BMDs here, if that's what you're looking for: http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/Index/IndexingOrder.cgi/search?event=births The index contains births up to 1906, marriages to 1956 and deaths to 1976. For more recent deaths you can find newspaper death notices here: http://www.rootsweb*com/~nswsdps/dpsindex.htm (replace asterisk with dot) Military service records can be found here: http://www.naa.gov.au/The_Collection/recordsearch.html http://www.awm.gov.au/
