To quote genealogist Paul Chiddicks (bsky.app/profile/chid...) "history is about people. It’s about how and where they lived, the challenges they faced, the triumphs they celebrated, and the legacies they left behind." And we couldn't agree more! There are thousands of stories waiting to be told.

Congratulations to the magnificent team of Volunteers working on the People of Western Australia's Ghost Towns Project. They have hit a magical milestone of collecting 50,000 records of people who lived in our many ghost communities around the state.

"In the Field's Find district there are not more than 20 men all told.
