"I was born at Oak Tree Point on Bentinck Island or as we call it Lookati.This is on the North side of the island.I was only very small when the missionaries came and took us to Mornington Is.I was asleep when it happened and when I woke up we were on Mornington Is.
I missed my parents when we were in the dormitory and we would often run away to be with them.When I was older I worked in the hospital and the mission house.
Not long after that I went to Karumba on the mainland and worked on a cattle station I moved around a few stations and on one Esmerelda I met my husband George Thomas.
He came back to Mornington with me and we got marriied there and had my eldest son there aswell.
We went back to Croydon on the mainland and was gone a long time.
When my husband got sick and passed away I returned to Mornington in time for our people starting an outstaion on Bentinck Is at Main Base or Ninjilki.
Now I live at Bentinck Is ,my home again with all my family.
