READ ALL STORIES
The following is a collection of the stories of migration submitted to the site. We invite you to read and gain some idea of the variation of experiences, taking into account the reasons for migration, the hardships and joys of the journey and the adapting to a climate and countryside that was often extremely foreign.
Read them and consider recording your own family's story.
Why not take a look at the History Handrail. The History Handrail is making a significant contribution to the gathering of Australian history and will provide a wonderful engraved display as people stroll the length of the Bridge.
