I’m so excited about the news that the Wangaratta Family History Society will be digitising and indexing Wangaratta rate books over the next few years. Just can’t wait!

**UPDATE** June 2024: Unfortunately this program has not come to fruition and the rate books remain inaccessible. I hope that this changes in the near future.
