The Institute has many books about the sailing ships that brought immigrants to settle in Maryborough and beyond. These include passenger lists, usually the logistics of the ship, family histories of some passengers and anecdotes about the families, while some include excerpts from diaries written by passengers and newspaper articles.

We also have books on local history, family history, genealogy and a range of other subjects for sale and in our Library.

See our For Sale page for the book list and pricing. Postage and handling is extra.

If you are interested in looking at the books in our Library then please contact us to make an appointment.
