Description
At the time this Index was created in 1998, the Public Records Office of Western Australia listed a broad range of files 'relating to the welfare' of Aboriginal people and the general administration of the Aborigines Act 1897 (and later 1905). Subjects in this index include the admission of Aboriginal children to missions, the distribution of government rations to the old and infirm, and criminal investigations and court cases concerning Aboriginal people.
