	It depends where they died - for example, New South Wales has a free death index online, which goes up to 1977. If you want to post details of the deaths you're interested in (approximate date and place), we can give you some more specific information.

	Paul has PM'd me to say he thinks the death took place in Queensland. Queensland does have a free death index online, but it only covers the period 1829-1929: https://www.bdm.qld.gov.au/IndexSearch/DeaIndexQry.m Is that any use to you, Paul? Do you know roughly when the person would have died? If not, do you know when they were born, and roughly when they went to Australia?
