Area We Cover

Our Library is based in the beautiful town of Ballina in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales.

The Richmond-Tweed Family History Society takes its name from the area between two local rivers that flow into the Pacific Ocean on the northern New South Wales coast of Australia.

Our region spans from Tweed Heads on the border of New South Wales and Queensland in the north, to Evans Head in the south, and to Kyogle in the west. Local towns in the region include: Byron Bay, Ballina, Alstonville, Wardell, Kyogle, Casino,  Murwillumbah, Mullumbimby, and Brunswick Heads.

We have many local records but we assist members and visitors with research all over Australia and the world.
