Distinguished and Famous people from Flinders Island
🎙️ Fanny Cochrane Smith
Palawa cultural leader Fanny Cochrane Smith was born at Wybalenna on Flinders Island in 1834. Her childhood included severe mistreatment in colonial institutions and households, followed by removal to Oyster Cove. Later, she raised a family and maintained cultural knowledge in southern Tasmania. Recordings she made on wax cylinders in 1899 and 1903 preserve an exceptionally important record of Tasmanian Aboriginal song and speech. Her Flinders Island beginning belongs within that history of dispossession, survival and the preservation of culture.
