'...Back in 1952 I was put into a home. Mainly because the rest of my brothers and sisters were there. My poor old mum, she just followed suit. She didn’t have a steady husband at the time and just battled, the poor old thing was just battling and I don’t blame her at all for it. It would have been a forcible thing, the intimidations were there. My old mum just got sick of running around hiding her half-cast kids at a place called Maryvale. It’s about 100 k’s south of here.' (Transcribed from the Stolen Generations' Testimonies website)
