THIS CD provides and index to all the notices in the Queensland Government Gazette relating to intestacies, insolvencies and Wills between 1859 and 1900, and where found, other associated notices, an index to intestacy returnes for the years 1896 to 1910 (plus scanned images of the source pages in the Gazette) and an index to Supreme Court of Queensland (Brisbane) originating summonses for the years 1900 to 1906. The indices can be directly searched by name, year and other details with QFHSdatasearch, which also provides direct links to the source images for the intestacy returns, viewable with Adobe® Acrobat Reader™. These three indices provide a valuable guide to death-related and other legal information for the period. The main index (consisting of about 87,000 entries) lists the name, residence, occupation, type of notice, court, fate and Gazette reference. All persons in each notice have been indexed - including executors, administrators and trustees - to provide as complete a coverage as possible of those involved. The Gazette notices may contain further information, for example relationships to others mentioned in the notice and, for insolvencies, the dividends declared. The intestacy index (consisting of some 31,000 entries) lists name, where died, where born, court and Gazette reference. The notices also indicate the total amount received, paid and invested for the estates of the listed persons. The Supreme Court index (consisting of some 4,000 entries) includes residence, occupation and notes the nature of the summons. QFHSdatasearch is a generic interface designed to search genealogy databases and developed by the Queensland Family History Society Incorporated. This version features field-orientated and keyword searches, Boolean selection, sorting, wildcard searches and links between search results and images in PDF files.
