The project, which builds on years of research by Professor Maxwell-Stewart on Tasmanian population records, looks to compare the life courses of settler generations in Hobart and Adelaide in the 19th century. The presenters will share some of the background to the project, things already learned about the Tasmanian settler population, and discuss some of the challenges involved in compiling and linking large data sets from the 19th century.

Please note, this session will be recorded, and all registrants will receive a link to the recording after the event. Registrations close Wednesday 6 May, 9:00 am.

Wednesdays @ 1 and Twilight Talks are our alternating monthly seminar events. Free for members, these events focus on topics of interest to family historians, such as talks from archives and museums, presentations from historians or authors, or seminars from genealogical research subscription sites.
