The Adnyamathanha genealogy was compiled by Christine Davis as part-time hobby, but it was her Aunt Pearl Mackenzie that first began to collect the names from the old people. In 1979, was when Christine began to write the collected information down.

The genealogy covers seven main family groups of the Adnymathanha people, and shows how these familes are linked. It includes extensive linked family trees containing all births, deaths and marriages to February 1985; also includes many portraits and individual histories (Nepabunna).
