Default Sydney Diocesan Archives

An agreement has been reached between Sydney Diocesan archives and Ancestry for some of the oldest archives in Australia to be digitised.

There will be some treasures in there!

Excellent!

Are they all the same documents as already available on payment through the NSW BDM register, or will there be anything extra?

I only know what has been released on the Anglican News website, but I am really hopeful that the church registers will contain different information to the BMD, and will be a useful addition for the clergy research projects that I am involved with.
