Margaret (Indigenous) Brisbane Water
Source:
An Australian language as spoken by the Awabakal, the people of Awaba, or lake Macquarie by L.E. Threlkeld
Details:
Old Margaret is the last survivor of the Awabakal. She is now living in her slab-hut on a piece of land near Lake Macquarie Heads, and supports herself by her own industry. She had the advantage of early training in an English home in the district ; she is respectable and respected. Her features, as compared with those of other natives, show how much the type varies ; and yet she is an Australian of pure origin. She was born at Waiong, near the Hawkesbury River, and is now about 65 years of age.
Surname:
Margaret (Indigenous) Brisbane Water
Details:
An account of the life of Margaret by Robert Talbot - Old Margaret does not, and never did, belong to the Lake Macquarie tribe; but the Brisbane Water tribe of aboriginals, having been born near Wyong where a powerful tribe of blacks located some 10 years ago. Ned, Margarets late husband brought her some twenty years ago from her native place Wyong to Lake Macquarie where she has resided ever since, but not all the time in her present abode. Margaret is between 40 and 50 years of age, has two children by Ned - Ellen aged about 22, and Willie, about 19. Old Ned died about six years ago and lays buried near Margarets present abode. Neds father went by the name of Flathead, his mother Mullity, and there was Kitty a relative. Margarets father is said by some to have been a white man - she is evidently above the common caste of aboriginals. No doubt Margaret remembers in her youthful days at Wyong such names as Molly, Hobby, Billy Boy, Buker, Little Jack, and old Major or Cherabout, all relatives of Margaret and a district tribe from the Lake Macquarie tribe, and in those days very often at avariance with each other.

Maria (Indigenous)

Dungog Chronicle 27 January 1899
Details:
I remember in particular there was a big gum that grew at the corner of Brown and Dowling Streets, which stood long after all the other trees had been cut down. Close to that big gum one day I saw two blackfellows fighting, Crandin Joe and Jerry were struggling to decide which had the better right to claim Maria, a black gin. Maria was seated at the foot of the tree awaiting the issue of the contest. While the blacks were fighting Ruggy Joe rode up on his old stock horse Bally, and dismounting, sat down to watch the melee. Instantly the gin took charge of the horse, mounted him and started off at a good pace up the road towards Cairnsmore. Ruggy followed her ou foot, while the two blacks stood amazed. I suppose there are few if any blacks left in Dungog now. A good many years ago there was a cobon cor roboree on Burnt Gully Creek, when there were assembled blacks from Gloucester, the Allyn, the Paterson, and the Upper Hunter.
