The basis of the National Pioneer Women’s Hall of Fame’s public displays are the stories and photographs of pioneering Australian women which are continuously being collected.
This information is preserved in our HerStory Archive and has been catalogued and indexed in the database below.
Apart from preserving many often previously untold stories, the archive will be useful for future researchers, as well as inspiration for future exhibitions at National Pioneer Women’s Hall of Fame headquarters in Alice Springs and online.
The information comes to us through many avenues: from our staff and volunteer research and from information supplied by visitors, authors, scholars and friends and family of the pioneer women.
Information may be accessed by searching by name, dates, category, etc.
The information on each woman who is included is a summary of her file in our archives. We are working toward attaching photos and will update information as it becomes available to us.
