HO19 - Registers of Criminal Petitions

Many Western Australian convicts are mentioned in these registers and petitions. We are indebted to WAGS past president and member of the Convict Special Interest Group, Bevan Carter for photographing the original registers, and also to The National Archives (UK), for approval to make these images available in the Members Only Area (MOA) of the WAGS website. 

WA Church & Cemetery Geo-Location Maps

We have uploaded new data in Google Earth maps. These maps are available to the public.

Geo-locations of Western Australian Churches, particularly pioneer churches, are one one map, and the other map covers Western Australian Cemeteries and burial sites. Want to see where your pioneers were matched or dispatched, have a look here. For hatched you may have to look elsewhere, but the maps might help with baptism church locations.

There are 35 mostly multiple choice questions which will take about 5-10 minutes to complete. See link below...
