Often these collective biographies only include biographies of prominent citizens of Australia. Others feature biographies of specific groups of people, such as Aborigines.
-*If a biography exists for one of your ancestors, you may be able to find a reference to it on the [https://www.google.com/ '''Internet''']. Search for "[family name] [name of locality]".
