Did your ancestors in South Australia own sheep? If so, have you thought of looking in the Brands Directories for more information on them? These are a unique, but most useful source for family historians. Local historians will also find them a great resource, with the ability to easily reconstruct lists of stockowners in their region.

What is a sheep brand? Owners branded their stock with a unique symbol or combination of symbols and/or letters. This identified who the animal/s belonged to. This volume contains tens of thousands of such brands for those in South Australia in 1938.

What information can be found in a brands directory? You will find an image of the brand registered, certificate number, former brands, name of proprietor, run where the brand is to be used (address), and nearest post town to the run.

This directory is divided into three sections:

• Sheep Brands Registered
• Sheep Earmarks & Firebrands Registered
• Alphabetical List of Names of Owners

This publication has been scanned at high quality, and is fully searchable, which allows the users to find a person or place of interest.
