My sister came to Australia first at the age of 13 as a Commonwealth Government single woman & stayed with my Aunty. My father & brother came next. My father worked & saved money to send for my mother & I to come 2 years later. Both parents came in their 40's with nothing. My father died aged 78 leaving us 3 blocks of land.
