Deed polls
We hold deed polls (change-of-name records) that were registered with the Queensland Supreme Court before 1 February 2004.
What’s online
Only a small amount of the collection is available for viewing online.

You will most likely need to order a copy of the record you are interested in or visit us in person at Runcorn. You can also view some of the photographs from our collection on Flickr.
