Article from Cairns Post by Andree Stephens

.....She loves fishing by the river, growing beautiful flowers and occasionally banging the sticks to accompany an amped‐up guitar when there's a get‐together. She is the matriarch of generations of children and lives in a stately Queenslander full of life and family. If only Daisy Melba Archer knew her past. "I am a member of the Stolen Generation," she says gravely. "I remember I was with my grandparents down at the riverside. They noticed me because I was the only half‐caste. The rest were dark. Police come and grabbed me. Just took me. Nobody knew nothing. My parents didn't know, they were working down on the farm somewhere. I was just swimming with the other kids." .......
