[QUOTE="Malleeboy, post: 77412302, member: 436627"] I suppose this tweaked my interest as a descendant of colonial Australians, my first ancestor arrived in 1792 and the last of my ancestors arrived in 1857. When they say all non indigenous Australians are immigrants, this jars with me, as my last ancestor arrived over 100 years before I was born, I am 8th generation Australian on both sides of my family. There is also an set of anomalies with the NSW Birth Death and Marriages, and some family history, that leaves the possibility that I have an Aboriginal ancestor back 6 generations. In my mind, if proven true (my Dad would be an mtDNA descendant, so the evidence could be confirmed) doesn't make me Aboriginal, just someone with the possibility of an Aboriginal ancestor. However that is only 1 generation further back than the Hon Lidia Thorpe or Ray Martin. [/QUOTE]
