The following is an index for references for
some editions of the Portland newspaper 1842..

Portland is situatued on the coast of South West Victoria
and was one of the earliest seaports in Victoria.
Information in the paper was not contained to this area..
but both national and international news was printed
but these references here are mainly for the Portland area.


The newspaper articles cover such topics as Births,Deaths,Marriages,
Obituaries,Places,People and Events.-local and world wide.
Where there is multiple entries for a person - I have only listed the one here -
but do have all references in a Master Database
