History
Material on the remarkable history of Norfolk Island and its people, with four successive occupations, is now largely stored and showcased on the website of the Norfolk Island Historical Society, although there is a flexible demarcation against this site. This website went live in January 2024 following endorsement by the Council of Elders in August 2023. Much of the material previously here such as genealogy is being transferred to its new website

Material such as papers and presentations arising from the “Home Grown” food security workshops in November 2022 are progressively being shifted.
