Orphanage and reformatory indexes at Qld State Archives
Queensland State Archives now has two new indexes available on line for the Toowoomba Reformatory (Industrial Girls School) from 1881-1903.
Toowoomba Girls Reformatory Admissions 1881-1903 and Toowoomba Girls Reformatory Discharges 1882-1903.
The entries in the diary records detail each girl admitted and discharged from the school, including date, number, name and remarks. The remarks column details the discharge of each girl whether to service or remitted from their sentence. These notes often include the name of the person to whom they were placed in service.
These new indexes link directly to the digital image of the original records in one quick and easy click of the mouse.
