Ballarat Family History
We have just added Women of the Diggings Ballarat 1854 by Dorothy Wickham to the collection. If you have family history in Ballarat at that time during the Eureka Rebellion this book is for you. If you are interested in women's history, this is also worth a read. This is the first detailed account of the lives and roles of women on the Victorian Goldfields including over 1500 biographies.
