Thanks so much Tricia for this great news, SA has always been a challenge. Thanks SLWA!
Free transcriptions of certificates held in the Adelaide District are available by emailing uccfamilyhistory@internode.on.net – a service by the Unley Civic Library – all certificates are free to view and transcribe at South Australian libraries where the district records are held. If the district is listed as ADE in the indexes we can transcribe for you – please request only 3 certificates at a time.
