AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Both florrie Lindsay and Dorothy Murray were at Bulman when I first worked there, and Dorothy and I formed the single women's camp in 1975. Dorothy is still there. Florrie was already quite an old lady when I recorded this account of her life in 1986. Unfortunately she did not live to have the written version read to her. Dorothy's story was recorded in 1989'.
