Our Aim
We bring to the public factual information regarding the Kelly outbreak. Much of the information in the public arena is mythical and completely false regarding the criminal activity of the Greta mob led by Ned Kelly. We present factual information that has been thoroughly researched and can be proven by authentic historical records.
We are desirous of ensuring facts relating to the Kelly outbreak are promulgated by government agencies across Australia. We will move to have false information removed that presently dominates government publications and replaced with authentic facts.
The site will be continually added to with additions being thoroughly tested to reflect accurate information that has been authenticated by historical records that are confirmed as factual.
