BiographyHistory

Molly Nungarrayi has lived most of her life on or near Willowra Station. While the Parkinsons owned the station, she helped clean the house, wash the clothes and milk the cows. Nungarrayi was a young girl during the time of the Coniston Massacre in the 1920s, under the previous station owner, and remembers numerous Indigenous people being killed in retaliation for an assault on the white station owner.
