Loved the quote Craig Have a question - though living in America Someday I may return even if it is just to be buried around Huskison Bay However My Grandfather death certificate states his Occupation as Black Tracker. And of course I was raised in Bomaderry Home and am pictured in (I think) Dawn Volume 10 august 1961 or maybe it was april 1961 page 11 What would I need to do for this proof of aboriginalty. Would I need it to go home even for a visit Thanks Veronica ----- Original Message ----- From: Craig Sams and Jo Kamira To: AUS-KOORI-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 4:02 PM Subject: Re: [AUS-Koori] Hi All on 2/4/02 20:56, koori at koori@iprimus.com.au wrote: > Hi all, Michael Mansell said 1 time "Tasmanian Aboriginals are the only race > of people who wake up in the morning and have to prove who they are to the > rest of the world" > David > What a great quote.
