Anzac Connections - Biographies including private records and diaries

This is the list of the private records digitised for the Anzac Connections project so far.

The  project aims to draw together information and sources related to individuals, and to present that information in one place.  You can click on any one of the names below to be taken to a page which provides a brief biography and links to all the information we have about that person on our website, including digitised private diaries, letters and other significant historic records. 

Over the next few years the Memorial will progressively add digitised versions of a broad selection of the private records of officers and soldiers from the First World War to the website. These collections represent the voices of those who served in their own words and provides all Australians with the opportunity to read these unique original accounts of the Australian experience of war.
