Parish and historical
Parish and historic maps offer a link to the past and provide information about local history, family genealogy and your own land and property. Copies of land records and reproductions of historical maps, title deeds and land grant documents can be obtained from Lands' head office at Queens Square.
The Parish Map Preservation Project
This project is converting the State's rapidly deteriorating parish, town and pastoral run maps to digital images.
You can now view these images online using the search facility.
If you don't know the parish name, use the Geographical Names Register to search by locality or suburb. The result of the search will include the parish name.
