Bendigo Benevolent Asylum 1860-1941

It has to be assumed that the information on the admission forms was given by the applicant and is therefore correct, but the form was filled in by the superintendent and spelling in some cases is quite peculiar.  The names in this index were transcribed by the members of the Bendigo Family History Group to the best of their ability. The group also has transcriptions of the full information as supplied by the patient. This often gives the arrival date, birthplace, parents, last residence, occupation, sometimes even relatives.
