We report µSR measurements on a series of compounds with composition La2-xSrxNiO4+d where the net hole concentration x+2d is greater than 0.4. A magnetic transition is found in all the samples studied which occurs at a composition-dependent temperature T M. Below T M, clear precession signals are observed in zero applied magnetic field. The possible muon sites are discussed within the context of dipole-field calculations.
