Notes

  • This was the family that had remained in the bush after refusing to surrender to the Mission Aborigines led by Robinson's son in 1836/37... They 'gave themselves up' near the Arthur River - because, they said, they were lonely. By the end of 1847 both parents and three of the children would be dead, leaving only William Lanney and his brother, Barnaby Rudge (Lyndall Ryan, The Aboriginal Tasmanians).
