Free official index, one search covering all three registers. Rolling published windows, stated by the form itself: births to 28/08/1926, marriages to 28/08/1976, deaths to 28/08/1996 (100/50/30 years) - outside those the absence of a row is a bounded negative, not a gap. Death and birth rows name both parents' given names, the identity discriminator. The birth index also carries the pre-1856 early church-register series with V-prefixed reference numbers, which the site warns may be baptisms or burials rather than births. The historical index publishes the registration YEAR only, never a day or month. Not scriptable: Cloudflare answers every scripted request with a 403 managed challenge, which clears in real Chrome. Certificate images are purchased separately and were not viewed. Which register a citation came from is recorded in its locator Index key.
Readily Available | GREENWELL MARGARET | 2813/1882 | AGE 63 YEARS | DIED BALMAIN | BALMAIN
Deaths results-table row, column order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District. For this early (pre-1900) entry the site's generic column headers carry age-at-death and place-of-death text instead of parent names -- quoted as displayed; it does not name her parents. District Balmain and age (63, roughly consistent with the recorded 1821 birth year) match Margaret Buckley #2087, registered here under her first married surname Greenwell (m. Thomas Greenwell 1838) rather than her second husband Taylor's surname.
Readily Available | GRAY JAMES | 4231/1941 | WILLIAM | HANNAH | BALMAIN
Results-table row in the index's column order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District.
Unavailable | GRAY HANNAH | 15004/1944 | MICHAEL | ANN | BALMAIN
Results-table row in the index's column order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District. Registered under her married surname Gray.
BOWLER JOHN WILLIAM | 40997/1969 | DIED AT MASCOT | AGED 58 YRS | NEWTOWN
NSW BDM historical death index row, read in Chrome 2026-09-06 (columns: Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District — the index puts the death place and age in the parent-name columns for this kind of late registration, as it does elsewhere). Matches DB's existing DEAT 26 OCT 1969, Mascot exactly. 'Aged 58' implies b. ABT 1911, about two years off the DB's cited 2 DEC 1912 birth date; flagged, not changed, since nothing here contradicts the birth record directly. This is the FATHER, distinguished from his identically-named son (#21709, d. 1979, cited separately) whom the Ancestry tree's single profile conflates him with.
TRUEMAN LILLIAN G | 12205/1894 | HARRY E | ALICE M | DUBBO
Confirms the DB's Dubbo birthplace (case 12205 also carried by the Ancestry Australia Birth Index hint 1778/3987097 for the same person) against the tree's uncited 'Orange', which this registration contradicts - reported only, not changed on the tree.
CHARLES LESLIE T | 10327/1882 | HERBERT C | MARY | ARGYLE
NSW BDM historical index row, columns PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District (availability omitted here). Confirms parents Herbert C x Mary and the Argyle district already recorded.
CHARLES THOMAS | 9441/1898 | JOHN | RHODA | GOULBURN | Readily Available
Index row, values in the search result's own column order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District. Retrieved 2026-08-29 by a deaths search on family name CHARLES, given name THOMAS, years 1897-1899, whole of New South Wales, which returned this row alone. The NSW historical index publishes the year only, no day or month, so it does not bear on the recorded death date of 7 Aug 1898; that rests on the two Goulburn newspaper notices already cited on this event. What it establishes is that the death was registered at Goulburn as number 9441 of 1898.
CHARLES SARAH | 5323/1882 | JOHN | ROLLA H | GOULBURN
Index row, columns in the search result's own order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District (availability omitted here). The parent columns read JOHN and ROLLA H (likely a garbling of RHODA H[erbert]) -- this is near-identical to her husband Thomas Charles's own 1898 death registration, which gives JOHN and RHODA for HIS parents (already cited, citation 49773). Either the informant or the transcriber supplied the husband's parents' names for the wife's own registration, or the two death registrations were simply confused; her actual parents (John Cole x Rhoda Herbert, #21829/#21830) are already correctly recorded elsewhere and are NOT changed on the strength of this row.
TRUEMAN BENJAMIN R | 26813/1891 | HARRY E | ALICE M | NYNGAN
Births index row, columns as rendered: Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District. Parents Harry E x Alice M match #21732/#21733 exactly; confirms the Nyngan birthplace already recorded (the tree's uncited 'Orange' is wrong).
TRUEMAN ALICE M | 27745/1893 | HARRY E | ALICE M | ORANGE
Registration district Orange; Millthorpe (already her recorded birthplace) lies within the Orange registration district, consistent rather than conflicting.
KIDD ALICE MARY | 30150/1952 | HARRY EDWARD | ALICE | CHATSWOOD
NSW BDM historical death index, KIDD Alice 1950–1955, read in Chrome 2026-09-06. Parents Harry Edward × Alice = Harry Edward Trueman #21732 × Alice Mary Ezzy #21733: this row is what ties the Kidd records to #21759. Earlier searches under TRUEMAN (1940–70) and TRUMAN (1950–55) were checked negatives for the same reason.
TRUEMAN ARTHUR M | 25093/1901 | HARRY E | ALICE M | ORANGE
Confirms the DB's Orange birthplace against the tree's uncited 'Deniliouin' (sic). The index prints the middle initial as M, quoted verbatim; both tree and DB give 'Norman', so no name change is proposed from one abbreviated letter.
TRUEMAN THOMAS F | 8843/1897 | UNKNOWN | UNKNOWN | MOLONG | Unavailable
One result row, its cells in the results table's own column order: Name, Registration Number, Father's Given Name(s), Mother's Given Name(s), District, PDF availability. (Corrected 2026-08-29: the version first applied listed the availability cell first, taken from the page-text header block rather than the rendered table. The values were right, the order was not.) The search covered NSW deaths for family name Trueman, 1896-1899, whole state, and returned two rows in total: this one and TRUEMAN VICTOR A, 12441/1896, SYDNEY. So no Henry Trueman death is registered anywhere in New South Wales in those four years, and this is the only Molong Trueman death of the period. The search was run in a browser by the tree's owner on 2026-08-29 because familyhistory.bdm.nsw.gov.au refuses scripted requests; the row is quoted as reported. The index carries no day, month or age, so it evidences the registration, the district and the registered forename only. The parent columns read UNKNOWN, so it cannot test parentage. Cited as the identification of the death this event records.
EZZY REBECCA | 7634/1867 | HENRY L | DIED RICHMOND | RICHMOND | Unavailable
The civil registration behind this death event: year 1867, district Richmond, both already recorded. The index publishes no day, so the recorded 6 APR 1867 is untouched — it comes from the family's own insertion in the Empire of 10 April 1867 and the Sydney Mail of 13 April, already cited here, and the monument's 5 April is likewise left as the recorded disagreement it is. Note the column misuse: "DIED RICHMOND" sits in the Mother's Given Name(s) column and is not a name.
DOBBINS William John, parents William and Alice May, 1961, district Richmond
Parents' given names (William, Alice May) match the father William John Dobbins Sr (1871-1946) and mother Alice May Johnson (1885-1946) already recorded in the tree.
Unavailable | DUTTON SOPHIA H | 6217/1889 | | MARIA | ST LEONARDS
Deaths results-table row, column order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District. Father's given name column is blank -- no father named on this death register. District St Leonards matches the tree's recorded death place; mother's given name MARIA matches person #52633.
1061/1869 | TRUMAN | HARRY F | CHILD | JANE | SYDNEY | Unavailable
The same row, cited on the MARR event itself, which had no citation. It confirms both of the event's recorded values: the year 1869 and Sydney as the place of registration. It cannot confirm a day or a month - the historical index publishes the registration year only - so the event's bare "1869" remains the right level of precision and is left unchanged. Column order and search parameters as stated on the family-level citation beside this one.
DOBBINS William J married BULL Stella V P, 1933, district Liverpool
Confirms the marriage already recorded in the tree (1933, Liverpool). Does not resolve whether this union had ended by the time of Marcia Evelyn Ferguson's birth in 1935.
Unavailable | FERGUSON ELIZABETH | 17817/1948 | WILLIAM | | AUBURN
Results-table row in the index's column order: PDF availability | Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) (blank) | District. Father William = William Maple #5136; Auburn is the district containing Newington State Hospital, Silverwater. Five other 1948 Elizabeth Ferguson rows have parents that exclude them.
MAPLE WALTER WILLIAM, 14601/1937, parents WILLIAM JAMES and ALICE, district CHATSWOOD
More precise citation for Walter William Maple's existing 1937 Chatswood death, replacing the generic undated Ancestry compiled-index citation with the actual official NSW BDM registration entry. Parents named (William James and Alice) confirm this is the correct Walter William Maple, son of William James Maple and Alice Holmes.
Unavailable | 3080/1878 | BEER | BENJAMIN | CHARLES | SARAH A | GOULBURN
One result row, its cells in the results table's own column order: PDF availability, Registration Number, Groom's Family Name, Groom's Given Name(s), Bride's Family Name(s), Bride's Given Name(s), District. The search covered NSW marriages 1865-1905, whole state, bride's family name CHARLES, bride's given name Sarah, and returned two rows: this one and 9354/1905 ROWLEY VICTOR H x CHARLES SARAH A at COBAR. Run in a browser on 2026-08-29 because the site refuses scripted requests. The NSW marriage index has NO parent columns and the search form offers no father or mother field, so a marriage row can never confirm parentage here; it supplies the married surname, which is then chased into the death index. The index publishes the registration year only, no day or month.
CALDWELL LILIAN CECIL | 7781/1961 | THOMAS FLEUR | JANE | MOLONG | Unavailable
The index publishes the year only, never a day, so the event carries the bare year 1961; the "3 February 1961, aged 85" that reached me second-hand is NOT supported by this row and is not recorded anywhere on her. MOLONG is the registration district, not a stated place of death; the event points at Molong #4746 on this tree's usual reading of a district. It is the district she married in and lived in.
SNOWDON JOSEPH P | 2830/1925 | JOSEPH | MARY | BURWOOD
NSW BDM historical death index, number search 2830/1925, read in Chrome 2026-09-06 (columns as rendered: Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District). The registration number came from an Ancestry Australia Death Index hint; the row was fetched from the NSW index itself. Parents Joseph × Mary match his Victorian birth registration (mother Mary Hankinson). The exact date 1 Jan 1925 is from the Woronora headstone (media 364); the index gives the year only.
NSW BDM historical index deaths row, column order Name|Registration Number|Father's Given Name(s)|Mother's Given Name(s)|District. Parents Edward x Ann match her 1864 Victorian birth registration.
SNOWDON ARCHIBALD JOSEPH | 11421/1943 | JOSEPH PASCAL | JEAN | NEWTOWN
NSW BDM deaths row; parents Joseph Pascal x Jean (this index's rendering of Jane, as on Arthur's own 1954 row 'JOSEPH PASCALL | JEAN') identify a brother of Arthur Cornwall Snowdon not previously in the tree. A Find a Grave memorial (143224237, Woronora Memorial Park, Old Section Family Rose Garden 30 #13, burial 31 Mar 1943) is very likely the same man but carries an unsourced contributor birth date/place (23 Oct 1889, City of Sydney) and a portrait photo with no grave marker - not used as evidence here.
KIDD PHILIP | 23023/1975 | JOHN | THEODORA MCKENZIE GOLD | 001
NSW BDM historical death index, KIDD Philip 1975–1976, read in Chrome 2026-09-06 (columns as rendered: Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District). Names his parents John Kidd and Theodora McKenzie Gold; the 1915 wedding report independently calls him 'second son of Mr. and Mrs. John Kidd, of Armidale'. Exact date and age from the Ryerson row below.
FERGUSON ELIZABETH | 17817/1948 | WILLIAM | | AUBURN
Her death registration names her father as William (mother not recorded) — supports the child link to William Maple #5136 in this family; quality 2 because the index gives the given name only.
CALDWELL LILIAN CECIL | 7781/1961 | THOMAS FLEUR | JANE | MOLONG | Unavailable
The registry evidence for the child link added here, and the only kind that can give it: the death index names both parents where the marriage index has no parent columns at all. The mother is JANE, matching Jane Child #21764. READ THE FATHER CAREFULLY: the registry gives THOMAS FLEUR where this family's husband is recorded as Henry Fleare Trueman #21763. The distinctive element, the middle name Fleur/Fleare, agrees; the given name does not. I am NOT resolving that here and have changed nothing on #21763 — it is a question about his record and it is with the agent who owns it. The link stands on the middle name, the mother, the Molong district and the two Molong Express statements cited beside this.
1061/1869 | TRUMAN | HARRY F | CHILD | JANE | SYDNEY | Unavailable
One result row, its cells in the results table's own rendered column order, checked against a screenshot of the rendered table rather than the page-text header block: Registration Number, Groom's Family Name, Groom's Given Name(s), Bride's Family Name(s), Bride's Given Name(s), District, PDF availability. The search covered NSW marriages, groom's family name TRUMAN, whole state, 1867-1872, and returned this row alone; it was run in a browser on 2026-08-29 because familyhistory.bdm.nsw.gov.au answers scripted requests with a Cloudflare 403. This is the registry evidence for a marriage the tree had recorded with no citation. HARRY F TRUMAN is Henry Fleare Trueman #21763 - Truman is an attested spelling of his surname and Harry F an attested form of his given names, both appearing on his children's birth registrations - and CHILD JANE is Jane Child #21764. The index publishes the year only, so it evidences the year, the district and the two names, not a day or month, and it carries no parent columns.
EZZEY ELIZABETH | 4912/1819 V18194912 1B | JOHN | REBECCA | CC | Unavailable

Four result rows, each quoted whole and in the results table's own column order: PDF availability, Name, Registration Number, Father's Given Name(s), Mother's Given Name(s), District. They are four of the ten rows returned for family name Ezzey, births 1790-1830. The V-prefixed number is the early church-register reference; the district codes CA/CB/CC are the index's own abbreviations and I have not expanded them. Cited on the family because what these rows establish is the parent pair.

Six result rows, each quoted whole and in the results table's own column order: PDF availability, Name, Registration Number, Father's Given Name(s), Mother's Given Name(s), District. Six of the ten rows returned for family name Ezzey, births 1790-1830; the other four are John and Rebecca's children, cited on family 6642. Louise and Lucy each appear twice under different references - duplicate indexing of the same early church-register entry, quoted as returned rather than collapsed.
CLEASBY BRIAN STANLEY | 14378/1970 | GEORGE STANLEY | ELVEY ANNA | PARRAMATTA
Brian Stanley Cleasby's death registration names his parents GEORGE STANLEY and ELVEY ANNA, matching George Stanley Cleasby #61469 and Elvy A Gazzard #61491, the parents in this family. Column order: Name | Registration Number | Father's Given Name(s) | Mother's Given Name(s) | District; retrieved by the orchestrating session in Chrome on 2026-09-04.
