This is just a small selection. There are other Yorkshire folk among the 5,000 patients 1888-1923 who are listed on my Web site. Register entries are not always complete, but there is provision for these details: name; date admitted; age; birthplace; occupation; religion; ship of arrival; how long in colony; place of residence; marital status; place of marriage, at what age, and name of spouse; names and ages of children living; number and sex of children deceased; father's name and occupation; father's present residence if living (or 'father dead'); mother's maiden name; disease or reason for admission; date of discharge or date and cause of death; sometimes additional remarks (medical history, social circumstances etc.) Note that ship of arrival, place of residence, marital status and father's present residence are NOT shown on a Queensland death certificate; and a hospital register is sometimes the only surviving source of information about immigration.
