Hi Jean
There will be one not too far away. Most centres have a family history
centre but some are very small . the small centres dont have the GRO
indexes. I have to drive an hr further to one that does.They are very
helpful, so look them up in the phone book. i tried on line but I couldnt
figure out what was close to tweed heads kerri
