Anzac Centenary: Sharing Victoria's stories website


To commemorate the centenary of the Great War, the Victorian Government has invited  us to 'share Victoria's stories' to help honour the local World War One service men and women. They have established a website http://www.anzaccentenary.vic.gov.au/ which includes information about grants, historical information and photographs and  resources to help research family and local history.  You can also add your family story to the website and this will be one way that the sacrifice and service that your family members made can be shared with the wider community. These stories will be searchable by both name and location. The site also has a list of upcoming events, from all over the State, which commemorate the centenary.
