These records are held by State Archives and Records Authority of New South Wales (June 1961 - current).
Histories of Girls and Boys Unattached and for whom forms have not been prepared is an alphabetical register of Aboriginal children who were not State wards and therefore were not included in the Ward Registers. The children listed in this record lived independently of the Board for the Protection of Aborigines, or were placed in institutions such as mental hospitals. Most of the entries are for marriages, and list the names of the partners and the date of marriage. More detail is given if the person was committed to an institution.
Due to the sensitive nature of these records access is restricted. Persons wishing to view these records must first contact the Department of Aboriginal Affairs.
A microfiche copy of these records is available, with the reference number SR Microfiche Reel 1633.
