We’ve been researching and writing family, local & mining history for over 35 years now, so we understand the problems and frustrations associated with conducting research in regional Australia. Old hands might remember us as some time back we published the popular Shoalhaven Family History & the Shoalhaven Mining & Local History Web Sites (which were lost in the wake of one of the numerous takeovers of Hosting Companies at the time), but with changes in technology we are now able to offer a completely new and exciting, content rich, site bringing you the resources you need at a price you can afford.
 Our Philosophy is simple
- Share our Accumulated Research & Reference materials with other researchers through the provision of a content rich site at a very affordable price.
- To enable us to do this it’s, What you see is what you get (we don’t provide any additional services or on line help)
- You pay for time only and there are no hidden extras; so we don’t charge any extra fees for reproduction of material
