BiographyHistory

Doris Graham was born on Point Pearce Mission and lived there for many years before moving to Adelaide. Graham's Indigenous name Bungardi means 'my little girl'. Graham and her husband received a letter by special courier from the Queen of England, as their marriage was the 'first' Indigenous marriage to last over sixty years.
