Are you looking for your family in South Australia? Have you thought of
looking in the Police Gazettes? A valuable record, they are a source of
information which cannot be found anywhere else.
Compiled to be distributed amongst the Police Force only, you will find
details of any changes within the police force such as promotions, demotions,
resignations, dismissals, deaths etc. Information is also given on rewards,
housebreak-ins, robberies, arson, murders, lost horses and cattle, deserters,
escaped prisoners, apprehensions, warrants issued, missing friends, lost or
stolen items, reports on those released and so much more. Notices from
interstate police gazettes are sometimes included.
