This book was created by the Superintendent of Ooldea Mission (Harrie E. Green), and contains details about residents of the mission. It includes information about births, baptisms, marriages, and deaths of Aboriginal people living at the Mission, as well as a list of residents. It also contains the Superintendent’s notes about cultural customs, totems, and traditions of Aboriginal people at Ooldea, and about their performances for a studio film titled ‘Kangaroo’. It likely also contains information about Aboriginal people transferred from Ooldea Mission to Yalata Mission in 1951.
This series is open and may be accessed by any member of the public. A searchable index of the names of people that appear in this book has been created by State Records of South Australia. To arrange access to this book and its index please contact the State Records Aboriginal Access Services.
