This morning the Immigration Discovery Centre was crowded with visitors researching their family history - there wasn't a spare computer! I helped a number of people locate relevant information via the internet, including a couple of sisters seeking information about their ancestors who travelled to Victoria at the end of the 19th century. The pair spent over an hour in the centre, murmuring away, exploring PROV's website, cooperating like people who'd always known each other.
