Police Gazettes really are an untapped source of information of information
for the genealogist. They contain such a wealth of information not only if you
had a relative who was in the New South Wales Police Force. You may find that
they were on the wrong side of the law … or that they were a victim of a robbery
or assault, or even just a missing person or a witness to an event … the details
can all be found in the Police Gazettes.
Compiled to be distributed amongst the Police Force only, the Police Gazettes
contain fascinating details and information that can not be found anywhere else.
Each issue is usually eight (or more) pages long, and contains information such
as court lists, lists of warrants issued, appointments and changes in the Police
Service, details of arrests and discharges (which include descriptions), escaped
prisoners, and missing persons, burglaries, murders, arson … the list goes on.
Notices from Police Gazettes from other states are also often included.
