Old data about Aboriginal life has been found in an attic. Caroline Tennant-Kelly, a colleague of Margarette Mead, did research into aboriginal culture from 1932 to 1970. A cattleman said he kept the collection because it looked like "the works of an exceptional person." Mr Kim de Rijke and Mr Tony Jefferies a team from the University of Queensland felt that there should be something out there, somewhere. Sure enough there was. They stumbled into cattleman Graham Gooding. It was extremely fortunate because many believed her works were destroyed
Aboriginals at Cherbourg in Queensland and in other communities in New South Wales were studied by Caroline Tennant-Kelly. Her work fills in gaps in the knowledge base of Aboriginals. Areas covered include genealogies, language, traditional ceremonies and kinship practices. The family names of people linked to particular regions is now known.
Information about Margarette Mead also came to light. Private letters and photographs give an idea of what Margarette Mead was like.
