Australian (Victoria) immigrants from Lanarkshire

The following are lists of some people who married/died in the state of Victoria in Australia, who gave their birthplace as Lanark(shire).

The original sources is the OFFICIAL INDEX to Births Deaths and Marriages for the State of Victoria 1837 - 1888 [as released by the registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages in Victoria.

The certificate number at the end of each entry tells you that person's special certificate number. That certificate can be purchased from the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages in Victoria - just quote the number.

The certificate of marriage will give you such information as: both parties names, their date and place of marriage. the church/registry they married in. their ages, occupations and marital status. Their current residence. Their parents names and occupation, witness to the marriage,celebrants name. The marriage certificates in Victoria are particularly informative as we had a brilliant man by the surname of Archer who set us up a great system of registration ,

The death certificates will generally tell you: the names of deceased, date of death and place of death, usual residence [eg..if they died in hospital..their usual residence] It will also tell you death cause, how long, and who treated by. It will tell you the parents' names if known, the birth places of the deceased, his or her spouse and all childrens names, usually with estimated or known ages, marriage place and age, burial place and date, witnesses to the burial and minister for the burial.
