Link up is a Aboriginal orgination that helps link families to their past.
I had to get Dad to sign paperwork as he is the eldest living relo. When I asked him he didn't say his mother wasn't Aboriginal, but didn't say anything.
The problem is Nan would have been classed as a White aboriginal and back then some records just weren't kept. Also if child was adopted by relo's nothing more was said. Also .... Heee heee, not all births were recorded straight away and the adoptive family registered the birth....
My next door neighbour is a aboriginal and comes from the Nowra tribe. She remembers a elder by the name Queenie rose, but unfortunately Queenie has now passed away, so things are getting harder. Wish your mum had of shed some light when she went down there. Why did she go what info did she have to go down there. The government knows more than they are telling us. They put my adult kids on abstudy just recently for Tafe courses and also paying for some of my grand kids school things.... They don't do this unless there is proof of Aboriginality....
See I said the Plot thickens...... LOL
