First Nations Australians, Clarence River District, New South Wales, 1875

from State Library of New South Wales

    This is an excellent example of the photographs Lindt took to make up the album, which is of great social and historical significance, but that's not the title of the album.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Interesting. Mr Lindt's Wikipedia has this (originally from the Grafton Argus of 16/11/1974) ...

    " ... "No. 6 is a group of natives comprising "King Charley", of Ulmarra, with his mother and gin; "King Charley" has the brass crescent plate round his neck which is used to denote his rank, and the war implements consisting of "boomerang," "nulla-nulla," "heliman," and "spear" are introduced together with a collection of "dilly-bags" and other appliances of domestic use." "

    beachcomber australia Beachcomber this one is pretty mysterious, not many identifying details - unless one of our ship-pros can name a vessel!

    Trainiac Thanks for your suggestion! We have popped it into the database and hopefully some more clues will come our way :)

    This may help the little ferry at the wharf may be this one called the Una investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp... Which ran on the Grafton River

    nugget1958 Terrific id of the UNA (what an odd-looking ferry!) and Grafton Clarence River. Confirmed with the first photo on this page, which shows a bit of the shed, wharf, and trees behind - www.graftonrowing.asn.au/history/ships10.htm . At the end of Prince Street Grafton, near the Crown Hotel. GoogleMapsStreetView
