The D'Arcy Archive
118 named in records · 90 of them not in this family

Every Person Named

The people this archive met in documents and never had anywhere to put: witnesses, constables, surgeons, convicts, clerks and comrades. They are in the record, and leaving them out would be editing it.

Two pages on this site already list people. The People is the family tree — 473 of them. The register is the raw catch, one row per source line. Neither gives a page to the man who found a body in Victoria Park in 1902, or to the six soldiers who gave six different answers about one death at Pozières.

There are 118 people named in records this archive has read. 28 of them are relatives and already have a dossier under The People. The other 90 are not in this family at all — and they get a page here.

Why bother with people who are not relatives? Because they are the evidence. Sergeant Morton of the 10th Battalion is the only human being who ever said where Arthur Sneyd was buried. Constable Moroney is the reason we know what was in a dead man's pockets. A convict called John Wells is the reason we know a major of the 39th shipped his dinner service to New South Wales. Cut them out and you are left with assertions. The register →
