20 Jan 2013. Made some changes to entry on Mathinna based on Ken McGoogan's nonfiction book, Lady Franklin's Revenge (HarperCollins 2005), pp. 211-213. I would love to see the sentence "Mathinna thereafter had problems with alcohol, which was common in indigenous people of the time." as this is clear later in that paragraph. McGoogan cites the colonist newspaper, the Hobart Town Mercury at length and suggests she died at 21 of drowning brought on by alcoholism.
