  1. This is a great read of our real pioneers, thank heavens that these folk persevered. What a wonderful woman ‘Granny Smith’ proved to be, enduring the loss of so many of her children and surviving to 95 years.

  2. Whenever I eat a mandarin I’ll think of Granny Smith and her extraordinary life. So much courage and perseverance.
    I thoroughly enjoyed her story.

  3. I’m always amazed at and admire the resilience of our ancestors. Thank you for sharing the story of Granny Smith.

  4. This was a wonderful story for me to read. Granny Smith is.my Great Great Grandmother .I have a wonderful book of the first settlers on the Burrum

    • Thank you for your lovely comment Kris. I find our pioneer ancestors such an inspiration. They were so resilient and creative often in the face of terrible odds.
