A new record has been added to the Outback Family History web site. It is the Methodist Church marriages for the town of Norseman. Although included in the ‘Goldfields People’ Index it is helpful to be able to search these records by town.
There are 487 marriages which give the following details.
Name of Groom
Name of Bride
Date and place of marriage
Groom:- DOB or age, Place of Birth, Status and Occupation, Address, Fathers name and Occupation, Mother name, Witnesses, Minister
Bride:- DOB or age, Place of Birth, Status and Occupation, Address, Fathers name and Occupation, Mother name, Witnesses, Address of Brides parents, Minister
So as you will see these records contain a great deal of information on these families.

My parents were married at Kalgoorlie in August 30, 1958. Could i track down the details of their wedding?
Also looking for pics of Norseman Primary School in the 1950s.
Hi Kerry Can you give me your parent’s names and a date. Im afraid 1950s is a little too recent for my records. Have you contacted the school directly?
Does anyone know anything about a J.A. SMITH? he was apparently living at the princess royal around 1954 according to my grandparents engagement notice. He is my great grandfather and I have very little information or knowledge about him and I would love to find out more.
