Noosa Shire Lists on Trove


Newspapers and early pictures reveal a wealth of information about our local area. There are many useful LISTS on Trove covering the early history of Cooroy and the Noosa Shire. These range from lists about World War I soldiers, early pioneers, buildings of interest, businesses and much more. Here are just a few of these lists, many compiled by volunteers through the local libraries and other Voluntroves. Some of these lists have more than 300 items. Thank you to Jane, Beth and all those who have added to this treasure trove of information.
